Migraine; Inside a World of Invisible Pain by Maria Konnikova, Maria Konnikova
3.0
As a migraineur, I'm always looking for and reading about migraines. I LOVED the Migraine Brain (Bernstein), so I thought this would be a good pick up.
It's OK. Short, has some of the newer information than I got from Migraine Brain, but nothing earth shattering or crazy good. It's fine for a simple listen, good information, not too in depth, but also, no really good or interesting deep dives or foundational information that you might get about the biology/pathology surrounding them.
And yes, misogyny and patriarchy suck and have greatly impacted the hows and whys of migraine treatments and practices, so I really do appreciate the author talking about that.
