Times-Advocate, 1980-04-23, Page 6By. ELAINE TOWNSH END If it's any consolation migraine sufferers who are trying, to sandwich a 'nor- mal' life between their at- tacks of head pain, they are in good company. Thomas Jefferson,, General U.S. Grant, Chopin, Charles Darwin, St, Luke, Madame de Pompadour, John Calvin, Tolstoi and Virginia Woolf are known to have suffered from migraines. Researchers further contend the visions of William Blake, Lewis Carroll and St. Theresa could have had their origins in the migraine 'aura' - the warning signs in the pre- headache stages - that these people endured. Migrainb has a 4,000 year history. The first description of migraine as a periodic `11 TO MARRY — Mr. and Mrs. Ron Heywood are pleased to announce the marriage of their oldest daughter Terryle Charlene to Mr. Andrew Pridham, son of Mrs. Donna Pridham and the late Tom Pridham.

Mesopotatnian poems, and Hippocrates in 400 B.C. designated hernicrania, the periodic headache with visual distnrbances. In spite of a 4,000 year history and the miracles of modern sciences, the migraine, like the common cold, stubbornly resists attempts to find a 'cure.' Until recent years, the migraine did not receive as much attention as other ailments in society. Perhaps this was because it is not a fatal disease, although it has driven some sufferers to thoughts of suicide, Now extensive research is turning up glimmers of hope for migrainers that they may at least be able to reduce the intensity, frequency and duration of attacks, The Migraine Association of Great Britiain established the Migraine Trust in the early 1960s for further research. Clinics are now in operation in England; for example, in London suf- ferers may go to a clinic for treatment at the outset of an attack and with prompt action the majority of cases are sent home after four hours. The American Association for the Study of Headache has existed in the United. States for several years, In later years, the National Migraine Association with headquarters in Chicago, Illinois, was established to refer Sufferers to accredited headache clinics. A few months ago the CI3C` daytime program Take Thirty featured a representative of The Canadian Migraine Foun- dation: 390 Brunswick Avenue, Toronto, M5R 2Z4. The Migraine Foundation, a non-profit organization supported by private donations, was founded in 1974 to gather material on the basic facts about migraines, to keep up-to- date files on research fin- dings, to answer the questions most frequently asked by migrainers and to compile lists of the warning signs, symptoms and trigger mechanisms most frequently noted by physicians and migraine sufferers, This, information is available free of charge to migraine sufferers upon request. In addition, more technical data for health care professionals is available upon request from physicians. The. Foundation em- phasizes migraine should be diagnosed and treated by a physician. Many migrainers are able to cope with the problem when the doctor finds the prescription medication or other therapy that is, bested, suited to the individual. Sometimes the sufferer is referred to a neurologist with a special interest in migraine.' The most helpful step the individual can take is to try to determine his or her personal trigger mechanisms: that is, what sets off an attack. The Foundation stresses the list of 'triggers' in its in- formation is to be used not as a tool for self-diagnoses but rather as a guideline. Please turn to page 7 Plan seminar on. family top ic .
