The second half of this podcast is about migraine and its psychiatric co-morbidities. Dr Mia. Minen, Director of the Headache Centre at the New York Langone Medical Centre, discusses migraine, a common concern for patients, and the high prevalence of psychiatric co-morbidities associated with migraine. Other topics of this conversation include which psychiatric disorders are associated with migraine, whether a bi-directional relationship exists between migraine and psychiatric co-morbidities and does this ultimately have implication for patient treatment.
