119. Why Migraine Disability Nearly Doubled, And What Nobody Is Explaining
Something in the migraine research stopped me cold when I was putting this episode together.
The percentage of people who get migraines has been flat for 30 years. Same 18% of women, same 6% of men. But the percentage of those people losing significant days to their condition nearly doubled between 2005 and 2016. Same number of people. Twice the suffering.
Researchers are baffled by this combination. I'm not.
In this episode I walk through exactly why migraine disability is rising while prevalence stays flat, why the conventional neurological framework cannot explain it, and why that same data confirms everything I've been saying about what migraines actually are and what drives them.
I also talk about why Migraine Awareness Month, as well meaning as it is, keeps raising awareness for the wrong problem.
This one is for anyone who has been told their migraines are just their neurology, their genetics, their wiring. The data tells a different story.
