Note from the hosts:
We are committed to using the following language guide for Migraine:
We refer to the overarching neurological condition as Migraine or Migraine disease. We do not refer to attacks or symptoms of Migraine as ¨migraines¨ or ¨a migraine¨. We refer to them as Migraine attacks, episodes, flares, or symptoms.
Why?
Migraine disease is a chronic neurological condition that causes a brain to be sensitive and reactive to triggers, causing attacks and symptoms to occur.
When we refer to Migraine attacks as ¨migraines¨ or ¨a migraine¨ it implies that attacks are acute, repetitive, singular, events, rather than being caused by a chronic, complex neurological condition that the brain is always navigating.
Please be aware that our guests might not always use the same language when speaking about Migraine. Please be patient, we are all learning together.

Your Friendly Migraine Pharmacist: A New Approach to Migraine Care with Heba Hani
Heba Hani (@TheMigrainePharmacist (https://www.instagram.com/themigrainepharmacist/)) is a Canadian registered pharmacist and the founder of The Migraine Pharmacist (https://www.themigrainepharmacist.com/). Earlier in her career, Heba noticed there was a clear lack of care and support for people living with Migraine and she has dedicated her lifework to helping people access the support, care and treatment they deserve. Heba is incredibly passionate about providing personalized clinical Migraine care to individuals as well as educating other pharmacists and healthcare professionals around the world to become literate in Migraine education and treatment. She also hosts monthly webinars for Migraine Canada (https://migrainecanada.org/), another excellent resource. Heba is a trailblazer as the first pharmacist worldwide to be accepted to a Master of Science Headache program at University of Copenhagen. We hope that you enjoy this incredibly warm and validating conversation about Migraine care around the world.
