$13.00

Could your re-occuring headache be a component of ADHD? If you have been to a doctor to get to the bottom of your migraines, and there is no resolution, consider that ADHD may be the culprit.

In this presentation Dr. Sarah Cheyette will explain how and why ADHD can lead to migraines. Why haven’t you heard this before? Part of the reason is that doctors who specialize in headache management are usually not the same doctors who specialize in ADHD. You go to a neurologist for your headaches, but most neurologists do not also manage ADHD. There has also been little academic study and few papers written about the coexistence of these two neurobehavioral conditions.
