Author Carol Shifflett penned the book Migraine Brains and Bodies, which discusses the Myths, Facts & Realities of this Monster that revisits so many of us with Brain Injury..

Carol is a science writer and former migraineur. She other books include Ki in Aikido, Aikido for Teaching & Training, and the much celebrated – Conquering Concussion with Dr Mary Esty. Check out that wonderful interview from June 22nd On Demand.

So many of us suffer the ill effects of migraine, that I wanted to bring Carol back to have a discussion of the intricacies of this specific issue. It seems little is understood about Monster Headaches/Migraines, that more investigation was warranted. Check out Carol’s site at www.migrainebrainsadbodies.com and join us for an enlightening show!

My guest tonight is Toni Samanie, who hosts valuable social media pages on RX Drugs, and the dangers that have occured. Though there are some who require medication, there is no doubt that we have an over prescribed society, the ramifications of which can be dibilitating or even lethal. We will be discussing some of the more currently advertised at the time.
