Thunderclap #headache peaks to max intensity in <1 minute by #ICHD3 definition.

Clinical pearl from this study: most with subarachnoid hemorrhage report headache peak to max intensity within 1 SECOND. https://t.co/xO8czDoLNE

I am interested in hearing how much/whether those with #migraine think Dairh piercings should be studied for migraine prevention? What would be a fair control group from a patient point of view? @PCORI @amfmigraine @ahsheadache

Great to see the @ahsheadache Resident Education Program as a big win! Plans are already underway for 2018.

Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for our adolescent patients with #migraine to report they have experienced physicians dismissing their pain. Interesting work here on the potential impact of gender. https://t.co/OskHvRXHC3
