Hi

I have never had migraines. But I met a very doctor socially who told me about a book by Oliver Sacks, called "Migraine". He highly recommended it, and said that he advised all patients to read it.

I have read 2 other books by Oliver Sacks which were both excellent. It might be an idea to try to get hold of this book.

Here are some bits about him, and the book, from the Internet:

Some of you may have seen the movie called "Awakenings", with De Niro and Robin . It is a true story, Robin plays the part of Dr Oliver Sacks.

I think the book was recently revised with new chapters added.
