The guide to migraine that doesn't start and stop
Everything we've written for the chronic, vestibular, and postdrome-dominant cohort, organized by what you're trying to do: understand the disease, track it properly, talk to your doctor, fight an insurance denial, or pick the right app. Grounded in the clinical literature, written for the person living it.
Understand postdrome
What the after-phase actually is, why it is disabling, and the clinical literature behind it.
The headache ends. The migraine doesn't. Postdrome is real. The brand-thesis explainer: what postdrome is, the Bose and Goadsby numbers, and why "just rest it off" misses the mechanism.
What every migraine app gets wrong about postdrome The four predictable ways the tracker category fails the after-phase.
Track it right
Why the discrete-attack model breaks for chronic and vestibular migraine, and what a continuous-symptom timeline looks like.
The vestibular migraine schema problem Why your tracker can't represent a migraine that never ends, and the model that can.
Why vestibular migraine takes a decade to diagnose How headache-centric criteria route the headache-free cohort into a years-long odyssey, and how to shorten yours.
Talk to your doctor
Make a short appointment count when the disability is the part your neurologist never asks about.
How to talk to your neurologist about postdrome The 90-second script, the three questions that change the conversation, and what to bring.
Fight insurance
The paperwork side of migraine: prior authorization, appeals, and the documentation that gets a denial overturned.
Free CGRP Prior-Auth Letter Builder Drafts an appeal letter keyed to the exact reason on your denial: step therapy, medical necessity, formulary, or quantity limit. Runs in your browser, stores nothing.
