Book Reviews of Managing Your Headaches
Book Review: Patient of Dr. Green's
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. Mark Green treated me for migraines for about five years until I moved out of the area which made it very difficult to keep him as my neurologist (how sad for me!!). This book is written in the same style as how he manages his patients - nothing is set is stone, he is very aware of the many nuances of migraine as well as nuances of each patient's physiology, and he is always at the cutting edge of technology. I recommend this book, and Dr. Mark Green, highly. (Since I never was treated by his wife, Dr. Leah Green, I cannot offer the same comments, but would presume that her level of excellence matches her husband's)
Summary of Managing Your Headaches
Frequent headaches seriously affect the quality of life for millions of sufferers. The result can be lost productivity and lost income, restricted ability, lower self-esteem, and even social isolation. For many it takes years to find the appropriate medication to manage their headaches effectively. In MANAGING YOUR HEADACHES, Dr. Mark and Leah Green explain what information you should record for your physician, what a physician is looking for in a neurological examination, and what you should and should not do to reduce the frequency and severity of your headaches. They discuss the effects of stress, psychological factors, food triggers, and environmental risks. The authors explain the symptoms of migraine, cluster, and tension-type headaches, as well as less common types. They address common concerns and misconceptions and explain current knowledge about headache causes in understandable terms. The newest most effective medications and their possible side effects are evaluated. The authors also explain how to prevent rebound headaches from overmedication and how nonmedical treatments, such as exercise and massage therapy, can be of value. MANAGING YOUR HEADACHES will tell you what you need to know to better control your headaches. Armed with the information in this book, you can be aware of the latest treatment options and can have more helpful discussions with your physician. Dr. Mark Green is a Professor of Neurology at New York Medical College and Associate Director of the Headache Institute at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center and Beth Israel Hospital Center in New York City. Dr. Leah Green is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at New York Medical College in Valhalla.Headaches Books
