This review is going to be short, because right now I am doing everything in my power NOT to get a migraine. And so far I'm winning. Part of the reason for that is because I have read The Migraine Brain by Dr. Carolyn Bernstein and Elaine McArdle.
Dr. Bernstein is a migraine sufferer (or "migraineur") herself, and she has written this book because "migraine is one of the most misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and undertreated diseases on earth. "
The book contains analysis of the most recent clinical and pharmacological research, patient anecdotes, interviews, quizzes and questionnaires - all aimed at providing the reader with a comprehensive migraine treatment plan.
It has taught me so much - most importantly, that migraine is a neurological disease, and that headaches aren't the only symptom. Certain chemical and structural differences in the migraine brain cause the many debilitating symptoms, and the effects of these differences can be minimized with a personalized wellness program.
If you are a migraine sufferer and you haven't read The Migraine Brain, I say get yourself a copy pronto and don't come up for air until you've read it cover to cover.
You will thank me.
You're welcome.
Sarah xoxo
