Episode 43. Migraine with Danielle Newport Fancher- Author of 10: A Memoir of Migraine Survival

I am joined in this podcast by Danielle Newport Fancher to explore the patient perspective of migraine as portrayed in her illness memoir titled 10: A Memoir of Migraine Survival.

Danielle Fancher is a writer, migraine advocate, and speaker who has received awards from the National Headache Foundation and The Association of Migraine Disorders for her writing and advocacy. She is also a member of the Patient Leadership Council for the National Headache Foundation and a Board Member for the Migraine Science Collaborative.

Our discussion traces the onset of her migraine at the age if 16 and how it evolved to become recalcitrant. Danielle narrates how her migraines manifest, from prodrome through aura to headache.

She also explores the unusual symptoms she experiences, from heaviness to numbness, which makes her remark that migraine is more than just a headache.

We also review the various medications she has tried in her desperate attempt to overcome the disease that she has eventually had to come to terms with it, particularly finding solace in the company of her large community of migraine sufferers.
