Not Now--I Have A Headache,
This review is from: Migraine: Everything You (Mass Market Paperback)
There are headaches and then there are migraine headaches. The difference is an emotionally and physically inbalance of toleration. In this easy to read informative book, Dr. Elkind has put together in Q and A form some of the more recent solutions for migraine sufferers.Interestingly, migraines can be genetic. I have a very good friend who has kept track of her medical history and found that on her maternal side, migraines run rampant. She has also found that one of her triggers to such pain is bologna--the food. I have witnessed her using ice packs, darkened rooms, medications--anything to stop the excrutiating pain which sometimes goes on for days. I must admit though, I have also noticed her using her migraines as a way to defer from work or any unwanted activity. Leading me to believe, as mentioned in the book, migraines can almost be emotionally contagious. I liked the way this book is arranged and can be used often by sufferers or those around migraine patients. It is helpful and fairly complete. There are some newer meds on the pharmacutical market now. But, all in all a good additon to medical collections. Your interest & comment votes are appreciated--CDS |
