I have had hemiplegic migraines since I was 6 or 7 years old and my family has done their best to support and sympathize with me, but yesterday I hung up the phone on my mom when she told me that I need to just stop stressing. I understand that anxiety does not help migraines, but how can you stop stressing when your health issues are the reason for your stress?!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17108361718347603530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6041000800660428069.post-80479631117165039902013-04-15T14:09:06.443-05:002013-04-15T14:09:06.443-05:00I did not see this but I am super happy I did not....I did not see this but I am super happy I did not. I probably would have been yelling at the tv. I've noticed an increase in "news" stories on migraine but they all still seem to have their data wrong. I'm not sure which is worse falsely educating people or having no one understand what a true migraine is.

I would have been furious! I've had many people suggest to me that they are caused by emotions, etc, and it is so wrong!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13464851421397863762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6041000800660428069.post-14827013896006314352013-04-09T15:48:49.396-05:002013-04-09T15:48:49.396-05:00I didn't see this episode, but I'm also fr...I didn't see this episode, but I'm also frustrated with you that no one actually addressed possible causes for her migraines. I think migraines are under-researched and underrated, especially with the amount of people who suffer from them.<br /><br />She probably is having stress *headaches*, and like you said, is using the word migraine instead (after all, the word "migraine" garners more attention and pity than "headache"). But whether it is or isn't a headache or migraine, why aren't they trying to publicly "fix it"? Did Dr. Oz not want to be the hero in this one?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07456692121027235900noreply@blogger.com
