Episode 44. Migraine with Mark Weatherall - Author of Living with Headaches

In this episode, I explore the diverse clinical and pathogenic dimensions of migraine with neurologist Mark Weatherall whose interests are the diagnosis and management of chronic migraine, facial pain, visual snow syndrome, and secondary headaches associated with systemic disorders.

Our discussion covered the distinction between primary and secondary headaches, the distinctive features of the migraine aura and headache, and the non-headache manifestations of migraine. Mark Weatherall also traced the history of the development, and of the use, of the current acute and preventative migraine treatments, and highlighting the role of the CGRP pathway. He also explores the research into emerging drugs that work via the PACAP pathway.

Mark is former Chair of the British Association for the Study of Headache and Trustee of The Migraine Trust, and who was a highly regarded historian of medicine before studying clinical medicine at Cambridge. His other interests are the historical, social, and cultural aspects of headache and facial pain disorders.
