from MAGNUM Support Advisor, Teri Robert
It’s a pleasure to be joining the MyMigraineConnection team. Migraine disease is something that affects me personally as well as professionally. I’ve had Migraines since the age of six.

National Headache Awareness Week, sponsored by the National Headache Foundation, is a great time to take a look at things we can change to decrease the frequency and severity of our Migraines. This year's theme is "Headache Relief: 12 Tips for a Headache Free Year." 
Communication is key to handling Migraine disease. We need to always be on the lookout for information about the disease itself, new treatments and more. Email newsletters can be a great source of information. Rather than "reinventing the wheel," MAGNUM is pleased to announce that the free Putting Our Heads Together email newsletter, edited by our Support Advisor Teri Robert, will now include a section for MAGNUM news in each issue. Putting Our Heads Together has been addressing issues dear to MAGNUM hearts since it's beginning. We want to thank Dr. Robert for adding a MAGNUM news section.
