Mum with pain 'worse than childbirth' felt like she was 'possessed by a demon'

A mum said she sometimes feels "possessed by a demon" due to pain "worse than childbirth" from a common condition.

Amy Jewell, 26, suffers from both migraines and cluster headaches. A migraine is an intense, throbbing headache on one side of the head, while a cluster headache is an excruciating, burning or stabbing pain on one side of the head near the eye, regularly recurring during an attack lasting weeks or months.

The bar worker from Norris Green said it's like she's "possessed by a demon" when she has a headache, comparing herself to a horror film character "rocking, shaking and throwing up" and says the pain is "worse than childbirth".
