The migraine diaries, with Sally Herships

Journalist Sally Herships has been dealing with debilitating migraines for most of her adult life. She shares her migraine audio diaries, and talks about how she has found ways to cope with migraine, which has often landed her in the emergency room. And, why is the connection between hormones and migraines so poorly understood, even though migraines affect more women than men?
