Trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias, sometimes also referred to as cephalgias, are a rare group of primary #headache disorders.

[American Migraine Foundation @amfmigraine]

About 75% of veterans receive headache care from their primary care provider. If you are a veteran, you may receive referrals to see a neurologist within the VHA or one of 28 VA Headache Centers of Excellence nationwide.

Dedication of our attending Dr @DanaIonel to teach our residents about a headache neurostim device at our #Holiday party @VeteransHealth! No opportunity missed, many reasons to train with us! @NMatch2024 #HeadacheCenterOfExcellence #neurotwitter #MedTwitter

So grateful to @miles4migraine for supporting my team at the Veterans VA 5K, where we walked for our local @FisherHouseFdtn but also raised awareness that veterans live with migraine too. I love what I get to do every day!

@shirleyskessel @VeteransHealth I loved both programs! My ACT Now project and Palatucci project go hand in hand. Advocacy is an amazing thing to be a “valedictorian” of! ☺️

[Dana Ionel, DO @DanaIonel]

I’m feeling revitalized after a whole weekend with other neurologists enthusiastic about advocacy! Can’t wait to come back to Kentucky and get started on my project to make migraine and headache education improvements at @VeteransHealth! #AANAdvocacy #AANPALF

[Dana Ionel, DO @DanaIonel]

This weekend, I was able to reconnect with my neurology course director from medical school while learning how to best advocate for my patients. What an amazing experience! @KansasCityU @DrSarahHon

[Dana Ionel, DO @DanaIonel]

I was so lucky to get to collaborate with patient advocates as well as other headache fellows to formulate this graphic and write this blog post. Check it out!

“People didn’t understand and would say things like ‘Oh, it’s just a headache’ or ‘Oh, it’s just a migraine.’ It was not just a migraine," said Brittany's mom.

What a memorable & vibrant @AmEpilepsySoc annual meeting!
We learned, we saw each other in person, reconnected with old friends and colleagues, made new friendships, discussed collaborations, our residents presented posters, and we had some fun moments!
