Hi, I am new here and wanted to introduce myself. I have suffered from migraines for several years now. I usually get one every couple months, occasionally more often. They always last 2 days. I am trying to learn more about what my possible triggers are and since I don't get the aura, I am trying to take note of how I feel in the days before so that maybe I can start taking my medication earlier. I think this forum is a great idea!

Welcome to the forum family Kristen!
It sounds like you're keeping a migraine diary already but here is a downloadable diary you may find helpful. Also, Teri Robert, our Lead Expert just wrote an article called Where to Start that has a ton of helpful information and links too. I look forward to seeing you around the forum  Laura Forum Moderator ***You're welcome to enter your birthday, etc in the Celebrate folder so we can party with you!! =) ***  |

Welcome Kristen!
Looks like Laura already gave you some info to start off with, so I'll just say hello for now. Oh and add that yes, a migraine diary is a great way to figure out your triggers. If you want to learn more about migraine diease, may I suggest a book? Living Well with Migraine Disease and Headaches by Teri Robert you can get it from Amazon - it has become my bible! So much great info in there - you will constantly find yourself going back to it! Let us know if there is anything else we can do for you..... welcome again!
