Book excerpt: What causes Migraine?Is it possible to be in control of it?Mastering Migraine answers these questions, and many more, in the most succinct way. Dr. Adam Harcourt simplifies the understanding of migraine and the 4 most common modifiable factors: Hormonal, Nutritional, Musculoskeletal and Neurological. This 4-Factor concept, along with his novel Bucket Theory aims to keep you from shooting in the dark when it comes to migraine treatment. If you picture the part of your brain that leads to migraine as a bucket, you can imagine that when the bucket overflows from any combination of stressors, migraine occurs. Mastering Migraine aims to help you discover the tools that will reduce these stressors, and at the same time 'make your bucket bigger'. The combination of these two approaches can move you down the spectrum of migraine, from having migraine often, to only having it once in awhile, or not at all. Mastering Migraine aims to help you stay in control of migraine, rather than having migraine control you. Read the book that will change migraine as you know it!

Download or read book Migraine written by Robert A. Davidoff and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-02-14 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migraine: Manifestations, Pathophysiology, and Management, Second Edition, is a much expanded, updated monograph that focuses in detail on migraine's diverse variations, its pathophysiology, and its treatment. Authored by a clinician/scientist who himself suffers from migraine, the book's premise is that the clinical significance of migraine and its treatment are intelligible only if the physician understands the anatomical, physiological, and pharmacological factors underlying both head pain and the other manifestations of migraine. The book provides clear clinical descriptions of the myriad of specific migraine syndromes, and discusses the rationale for, and elements of, a sensitive, inclusive patient history. Also covered are important but sometimes ignored topics such as environmental triggering of migraine and myofascial syndromes. The Second Edition also bridges the gap between basic science and clinical practice by explaining those substantive advances made in understanding fundamental mechanisms of head pain and aura. Recent knowledge about genetics, hormonal changes, cerebral circulation, nitric oxide, peptides, central sensitization of trigeminal neurons, and the role of periaqueductal gray matter buttress the discussion of basic mechanisms. On the treatment side, the Second Edition reflects the impressive advances in pharmacological approaches to migraine. There is a greatly expanded section on the triptans and their mechanisms of action, and rationales and practical information about the use of all other viable anti-migraine and prophylactic drugs. Psychobiological aspects of stress and stress management, elimination of environmental stimuli, the educational facets of management, and aspects of the patient/physician interaction so crucial in the treatment of migraine are all discussed. Special problems associated with the care of women, children, the elderly, patients with intractable headaches, and emergency department patients are thoroughly reviewed. In sum, this scholarly, well-referenced book offers in one volume a comprehensive scientific and clinical discussion of migraine headache.

Download or read book Migraine written by Oliver Sacks and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1973 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The many manifestations of migraine can vary dramatically from one patient to another, even within the same patient at different times. Among the most compelling and perplexing of these symptoms are the strange visual hallucinations and distortions of space, time, and body image which migraineurs sometimes experience. Portrayals of these uncanny states have found their way into many works of art, from the heavenly visions of Hildegard von Bingen to Alice in Wonderland. Dr. Oliver Sacks argues that migraine cannot be understood simply as an illness, but must be viewed as a complex condition with a unique role to play in each individual's life.
