In March 2010 I was contacted via this blog and asked to review a new book, The Migraine Brain, by Dr Carolyn Bernstein and Elaine McArdle.
The accompanying pre-publication material explains how this book helps prevent and treat your migraine:
- Collates the latest research on why you get a migraine
- Explains how the brain chemistry of migraine sufferers differs, and why migraines occur
- Interactive approach with quizzes, graphics and fun facts
- Encourages you to take charge of your own illness and helps you develop a customized wellness plan
- Separate chapter for men and migraine
- Chapter on the role of female hormones in triggering migraine attacks, including migraines in pregnancy and migraine after the menopause
- Discusses new migraine drugs together with alternative therapies
Having completed my review of The Migraine Brain, I am pleased to give this book my recommendation. You learn more about it from the Amazon link below.
Who is Dr Carolyn Bernstein?
