My name is Chloe, I’m 8 years old. I have migraines. When I get one I feel dizzy and I get a sort of ringing in my head. The pain is annoying and is painful. I have to lie down and rest at my school. My eyes get all blurry. I go and see Dr Gilbert at the hospital, he is very kind to me. My mummy gives me special medicine at day and night to stop me having them. But I will have to come off it soon.
