Chronic Migraine is a highly debilitating disease. It is characterized by the experience of 15 migraine days or more per month. Over 4 million adults experience Chronic Migraine. Migraine often times goes undiagnosed in children. Around 10% of elementary school  children suffer from migraine. In addition, upwards of 28% of children from the ages of 15-19 suffer from migraine headaches. Many migraine sufferers report having their first attack before age 12. I had my first migraine with aura when I was 9. I remember like it was yesterday. I was reading in class and I could not see the pages in the book. By the time I got to the nurse and called my mom I was terribly sick. The headache and vomiting were the worst I had ever experienced.  My Episodic Migraines, which is characterized as less than 14 migraines a month, turned into Chronic Migraines in my early teenage years. I learned to navigate being a teenager and the anxiety of chronic migraine, and it was not always easy. In my early twenties my migraines started to change. I was diagnosed with Hemiplegic Migraine at age 25. Hemiplegic Migraine is a rare form of migraine that makes up just 0.01% of the migraine population. This condition brought on many new and unfamiliar migraine auras. I now experience auras in the form of weakness on one side of my body, speech loss, vision loss, and sensation loss, during a migraine episode. I have learned that along with my daily preventative medications and my abort medications that food is the best medicine. Holistic Healing has helped in so many wonderful ways with not only my migraine pain, but also preventing daily migraines, and the anxiety that comes with my chronic condition.
