Taurine

I have found that taking Taurine brings my occipital neuralgia under control. The back of my head and neck get filled with pain. I take 2000 mg twice a day on empty stomach until I bring it under control. There is a anxiety order that seems to be connected to it. This time the anxiety was more subtle.
There are many reports it cures migraines also. I did have severe anxiety many years ago also but taurine dissipates it over time.

Occipital Neuralgia
I have a hypothesis of another cause of this condition. I have notice that I can go long periods without any problems. I think it may be a sciatica type of problem except the pain runs upward.. Most sciatica is caused by herniated disc condition. This may be the case for neck also. Look under sciatica then under hyaluronic acid for my posts. The cell degeneration may cause inflammation in the C2 area of the neck which in turn touched the nerve. This may be a more permanent solution.
