Migraine is so common, it affects 1 billion people worldwide - 50 million in the U.S. alone, with a $78 billion price tag. The Migraine Enigma provides a unique perspective with thorough yet concise insight into the darkness of migraine disease - with optimism for a brighter, healthier, pain-free future for migraine sufferers. A neurologist specializing in migraine disease with more than 30 years of experience, Stephen Landy, MD, has teamed up with a patient - a longtime migraine sufferer - to write a remarkable migraine book unlike any other: with a physician's and a patient's perspective. It's relatable and understandable by all, with real-life stories, experiences, facts, and a bit of humor. Each clinically relevant chapter is concise, readable, comprehensively addresses migraine and is primarily patient oriented. Also included are details about how migraine is "More Than Just a Headache," migraine prevalence, gender differences, triggers and pathology, the spectrum and comorbidity of migraine, the very latest up-to-date developments, medications and other treatment options available now, some of which are not well-known, resources and support and more. Each chapter is packed with critical information and useful takeaways, many of which are actionable right away. The Migraine Enigma is for anyone directly or indirectly affected by migraine.
