September Headache Blog Carnival
Hooray! The monthly headache and migraine blog carnival is up! It almost makes up for having chronic headaches and migraines…well, not really. But it does make for good reading, good publicity for your blog and good research for those trying to learn more about life with chronic pain. And this month, I actually remembered to submit a blog post. The topic this month was “Doctor and Patient Communication.”
Highlights
These are the posts that jumped out at me and got the attention of my tiny little brain. Once again, if your post is not mentioned, that is not meant to reflect on your writing ability.
- How to Talk to Your Migraine Doctor written by a doctor Mary Kay at Headache Advisor. This lets you know the information that your doctor needs to know from you in order to help you quickly.
- Getting the Most from Doctors Appointments from this blog. It covers the basics froma patient’s point of view.
- Hypnosis Reduces Headaches in Children by Michael Lovitz. This focuses more on stress headaches, but has the results of an interesting study.
- Saturday Thoughts by Sue at Inner Dorothy just for the guinea pig picture. Although the article about Dorothy’s participation in a drug trial is also worth a look.
- Although aimed for dealing with children’s migraines, Have Your Child Draw Their Migraines is also good advice for adults. Not suprisingly, this is yet another brilliant post is brought to your by James at the recently streamlined Headache and Migraine News Blog.
Next Month
November’s topic hasn’t been determined yet, but if youy have a blog post that would be of general interest to migraine or headache patients, then submit a link to it for November’s blog carnival. Contact Diana Lee at SomebodyHealMe.com for details.
Off to collapse.

Hi Rena,
Thanks for your very nice comments about my post on the Headache Blog Carnival.
Hopefully, some of the suggestions will help those going to a headache doctor for the first time.
