My Story…
In 2018, I had a spinal fluid leak which caused me to have chronic, debilitating migraines. After being bed-ridden for 2 years, my amazing doctor at Jefferson Headache Cntr. Found the right combination of medications so that I regained some of my life. Additionally, I was lucky to have a neurostimulator implanted off- label for migraines by my amazing Jefferson neurosurgeon. While I still have chronic daily headaches, & am still fully bedridden at least once/week, I am so grateful to be able to enjoy some of the things I used to & to be functional. Miles for Migraines is dear to my heart, as there is not enough funded research for migraines. My hope is that one day there can be 1 or 2 medications that can help me, vs. the multitude of medications that I take. I am
So grateful for my husband who has been my greatest supporter & cares for me when I can’t care for myself, & my family & friends who have been there for us. I consider myself a very lucky person, despite my disability.
