Migraine: A History
Examines the historical understanding and treatment of migraine across various periods, from classical and medieval times to the present day. It explores the evolution of medical theories—from humoral and vascular to neurological and genetic—and the diverse remedies employed, including ancient herbal concoctions, bloodletting, and modern pharmaceuticals like triptans. The sources also shed light on the social and cultural perceptions of migraine, highlighting how class, gender, and societal expectations influenced diagnosis and patient experience, as well as the growing patient advocacy and the role of art in expressing the lived reality of chronic pain. Finally, the text touches upon the impact of technology, such as digitization and online communities, on both historical research and contemporary patient support.
