Thank you so much for your questions and topics!
I received two important topics from our BEST friend, Sue P. She suggested covering the topics of fatigue and brain injury and migraine and brain injury.
Thank you, Sue, for the great suggestions!
Because the of the amount of links and the size of the topic, I decided it would be best to cover the information in an article instead of a short video, and break up the suggestions in two parts.
Last week, I covered fatigue and brain injury. Click here to read.
Today, I’ll cover migraine resources and provide links.
