Available for over a year

The National Migraine Centre has launched its first survey into the impact of migraines at work. Among the results is the fact that half of all chronic migraine sufferers were worried about losing their job due to their condition. 10 million people in the UK suffer from migraine. It affects women more than men with 1 in 5 women afflicted by the condition compared to 1 in 15 men. Jenni talks to Dr Jessica Briscoe a part-time GP and headache specialist at the Centre and to former GP Dr Anna Maclean who gave up her job four years ago because of the severe symptoms of the condition.
