question: does anyone know if any neurologists or headache experts would be interested in my notes and observations surrounding my migraines? like in an scientific/academic sense?
one of my scientist friends who i shared them with said i should consider reaching out to somebody since theyre so in-depth and ive been documenting my migraines for years. but idk how to do that or if there would actually be any interest lol
boosts appreciated! 🙏

I blocked off some time Saturday afternoon (ET) for a little virtual #MigraineChat #NYE chit chat for anyone who doesn’t have plans and wants to socialize a bit.
I’m not posting the link publicly, but comment below and I will send you the Google Meet link. 💜
I might also pick a movie to #Teleparty on Sunday. Any interest? Movie suggestions?

CW: Gut-Brain Health and Pain Medications
The tl;dr:
- In mice, gut mucosal producing cells contain receptors activated by #CGRP, a neuropeptide released in response to pain.
- Blocking those receptors might mean the gut won’t get the “message” to make more mucus, necessary for gut health.
- Anti-CGRP medications are used to block CGRP (receptors or the molecule itself) in #migraine, to prevent migraine attacks.
