My Story…

After struggling with chronic migraines for over a decade now, I have finally been able to navigate a path for treatments options that have been helpful for me. While I still struggle on a daily basis, and I do rely on OTC and prescribed medications regularly, I am not losing hope in finding ways to live a fulfilling, as pain-free as possible, life. Throughout the years I have come to realize, I am not alone. And many of my friends and family have suffered with migraine as well. I went a very long time thinking I “just had headaches” and I held a lot of guilt for not being able to power through a lot of my days. I hope that we can someday find, even if not a cure, at least more ways to help those with migraine live healthy, happy, fulfilling lives. Especially at this time where funding for medical research is so uncertain, I feel it is our obligation to help those where we can and support how we can to foster a healthier and happier community.
