Wow, that's neat! I liked the sentence,
"Just the fact our new President 'gets it' regarding the burden of Migraine and headache disorders — will have a dramatic effect on 30 million sufferers and their loved ones in America."

Here is a link to go directly to the presidents letter:

Thanks Rose!

Unfortunately I find President Bush and his policies to be a migraine trigger.

Is it Bush or any republican? I may be being presumptuous, but is it the conservatism (sp?) Thankfully, we don't have to agree with all he stands for to benefit from the work he does. You are getting a refund back within the next month or so, right? $300? Now that's a good thing.

As much as I would like to enter into a discussion of the current adminstration policies, I do not want to clutter up this valuable asset to my migraine management with such discussions. I will leave my thoughts to the relevant posting that consideration of the policies of the current president triggers migraines for me.

That's a good idea. Just though I'd ask since you brought it up.

Wonderful!! Maybe if the president understands the problem, it will "trickle down" to bosses, health professionals, social security people, etc. and we will finally get some real help.

Someone in his family has migraines, I'm convinced. I also noticed most of the Congressional letters were signed by women.

My doc at a major headache clinic is also a sufferer. She told me that no doctor truly understands the intensity of migraines until he sees a sufferer sail through labor and delivery or recover so quickly from painful surgery and other procedures.

At least now there is one thing I can thank Bush for.
Hope all are well,
Mishkyn

I believe it is a step in the right direction however in migraines, headaches are the symptoms of the neurological disease and until people understand that we have a long way to go!!!

p.s.
And for the Democrats who wont be smiling when they receive $300 bucks give it back to your Democratic party and right it off. I'll will enjoy the extra few bucks in my pocket. But dont let politics give you a migraine worrying doesnt change anything I learned that along time ago.
