Headache Carnivals and Awareness
June 8th, 2009
It’s a big week in the world of headache - first of all it’s Migraine and Headache Blog Carnival time again, 
with this month’s topic of “What people don’t understand about migraines & about what it’s like to live with them” posted over at Somebody Heal Me. Lots of great posts, both on and off topic. If you haven’t checked out The Headache & Migraine Disease Blog Carnival before, it was been created to provide both headache patients and people who blog about headaches with opportunities to share ideas on topics of particular interest and importance to us.
But even bigger news is that it’s National Headache Awareness week, sponsored by the National Headache Foundation. Educational events are going on throughout the country this week to raise awareness of Migraine and other headache disorders. A great new tool on the National Headache Foundation web site is Headache U, an on-line resource where you can look up your experiences with headache, create a personal headache profile, and get matched with the right resources for you.
A great week for educating both ourselves and the other people in our lives about Migraine Disease and Headache Disorders!

Headache awareness is very important. We know that there are many ways to treat them, over the counter medications, herbal remedies and chiropractic/massage - all depending on the type of headache. The more knowledge the better we will be able to understand and hopefully one day prevent headaches all together. Thanks!
