Chronic migraine caused Michele Jordan to miss out on important moments in her life. Puberty triggered her hereditary condition, and several doctors dismissed her symptoms. Finally, she received a prescription treatment that helped right away. Nutrition also played a pivotal role. Today, she’s a big proponent of time management, herbal and holistic medicines, and prescription drugs to combat migraine. Based in Los Angeles, she writes about family and health, including pieces for WebMD.
