Migraine Patient Stories
Danielle Newport Fancher is a writer, migraine advocate, and author.
Danielle attended Skidmore College and received her BS degree in Management and Business. She currently lives in Manhattan and, in her spare time, writes at her favourite coffee shop in Gramercy.
Danielle is tired of the stigma that a migraine is "just a headache," and she's made it her mission to change that perception.
"I've had migraines for the last fourteen years, with ten years being chronic. My migraine brain continues to stump my doctors, some of the country's best neurology and migraine specialists."
"For many years, I have proactively done everything possible to beat migraine brain with little success."
"My efforts range from treatment at a specialised in-patient neurological centre to quitting my job to live on the beach in Costa Rica. I did the latter because I lost all hope of a migraine-free life."
