Description

"To have a migraine brain is to have a highly reactive brain that does not respond well to changes in light, temperature, sound or even smell. Anything that triggers this increased sensitivity can cause your brain to start zipping off pain signals.

The headache can last up to 72 hours, but the full duration of an attack may be a week. For some, there is no headache at all, but other symptoms — flashes of light or bright spots, loss of sight, nausea, numbness or tingling — can mimic alarming, ER-worthy conditions" (AARP).

We don't know about you, but ^that^ sounds pretty awful! This week is all all about the dreaded migraine! Join us as we discuss causes, symptoms, and available treatments to help you or your aging loved one cope with these massive headaches.
