Drug Companies Furious: New Migraine Book Reveals Secrets to Evidence-Based Rehabilitation

Share this news:

"The Migraine Revolution: We can End the Tyranny" banishes the myths and lies that keep millions of migraine patients suffering and dependent on medication. This patient guide explains how to become an ex-migraineur, backed by science.

This unique handbook cites more than 1,600 studies to explain all aspects of migraine, a vicious disorder that gives affected patients the feeling that they are too "sensitive" and fragile for this hostile world, full of flickering lights, odors and weather changes.

Eight of the world's leading migraine clinicians have contributed encouraging case examples of successful therapy outcomes: typically complete cessation of attacks. Of course, some professional sufferers with a name and a career in the migraine industry will defend their turf just like the drug barons: "Migraine can't be cured! Otherwise it would be on page one of every single newspaper in the world!" Not really, migraine affects men three times less than women, so the breaking news about a migraine solution would always come second to sports results.

Tens of millions are condemned to endure the agony, misery and assault of regular relentless migraine attacks. More than a third lose more than five days every month to an array of symptoms, often including debilitating headaches. Migraine is a quality-of-life threatening disorder and sufferers feel left alone with this invisible and unpredictable tyrant. They fearfully tip-toe around alleged migraine triggers and worry that people think: "It's just a headache."

It is obviously in the financial interests of the pharmaceutical industry to make migraineurs believe that drugs are the only way to get symptom relief. For that they declare that "a migraine is a kind of headache", implying that migraine disorder is merely an annoying episodic symptom, lacking any underlying condition. That is equivalent to explaining that "Pneumonia is a kind of cough" and treating it with cough syrup instead of antibiotics. Logically, migraineurs mainly discuss the drug treatment of their attack symptoms. Marketing mission accomplished.

Whilst migraineurs with occasional "migraines" are happy with the convenient pill popping, the consequences of this deceit are dire for those with frequent attacks: The migraine brain is unique in that it reacts to migraine medication with "rebound headaches", encouraging further drug consumption. And so migraineurs often end up with drug dependence, medication-overuse headaches and chronic migraine.

To keep their customers obedient and loyal, the industry constantly spreads myths and lies. For example, the headline "Migraine is genetic" leads patients to believe that they can't escape their pre-determined fate. However, studies with identical twins leave no doubt that this is a blatant lie, but patients don't usually have access to helpful and empowering scientific findings. "The Migraine Revolution: We can End the Tyranny!" counters the deceit by providing a comprehensible and comprehensive education for all those migraineurs who've had enough of being helpless victims.

"The Migraine Revolution: We can End the Tyranny!" replaces the drama of migraine with scientific facts that will surprise many long-time patients and empower them to pursue a targeted rehabilitation. Author Martin Brink, a successful migraine therapist himself, states: "When migraine patients find out how they've been done over, it will spark a Migraine Revolution." And migraineurs agree; a reader in the UK writes in her amazon review: "This is the book I had been waiting for."
