Hi, everyone! After living with migraines for 38 years, the first 15 of which I didn't know what I had or that there was help available, I would like to say that I believe there is hope (and help) for all of us. I'm 53 now and have had fewer and less intense migraines over the last year to 18 months. Keep seeking help and whatever you do, please don't SIS (suffer in silence). 
Teri indicated that it would be okay for me to share with you a project I'm working on and see if you have creative works you would like to contribute. It's a migraine art book that will include quotes, poetry, creative prose, drawings, paintings, photos, or any other media illustrating how we live, cope, and feel with migraine. I would especially like to include works that illustrate our good and productive times, uplifting and encouraging events -- I'm so impressed by how much we all accomplish! Please see this page of my Web site for more information about the project: www.wordmetro.com/projects.html
Thank you for the inspiration you all provide to one another and others!

I've been so swamped that I haven't done a SharePost on your wonderful project yet. I promise to get it done before the weekend.
Let me give you the "official welcome." It will answer any questions you may have about getting to the forum, etc.
It's good to see you!
