I’ve just stumbled across this after feeling pretty desperate with yet another vestibular migraine. I’ve never heard of the charity or the podcast before, but I listened to three hours straight and I’ve already got some truly vital tips - from quite fundamental advice around medication and how to...Read full review »

Dr Jessica Briscoe and Dr Katy Munro are my NMC doctors. They literally gave me my life back when I met them 5 years ago with constant vestibular migraine. I’m suffering again at the moment due to adenomyosis and allergies and they’re still there for me, by my side, helping me navigate it. If...Read full review »

I’m a GP and this podcast is a godsend. I’ve learnt so much about treating Migraines through listening to this, and I have no doubt it will improve my clinical treatment of patients and also the education I can offer trainees. Thank you!

I have learnt so much from this podcast, just wish there was somewhere similar in Australia we could go. Thanks for all your information and for not making me feel so alone

I’ve been listening to the Heads Up podcast for a while, and although I live in New Zealand I still find the content informative and relevant. The mix of content is great and the discussion easy to understand. I recommend to anyone serious about understanding and managing their migraine better...Read full review »

I found this so helpful. My migraines started when I was around 7 and the symptoms have changed over the years, particularly worse when at senior school. From vomiting with severe headaches with sensitivity to light. Now in my late 40s I get auras, feeling like I can’t walk straight and going to...Read full review »

This conversation is hugely appreciated, I often feel very alone and confused about what is happening to me. I have found it hard to find a medical practitioner to take any interest and it’s wonderful to hear that it’s not just all in my head.
RachelHKStories via Apple Podcasts · Hong Kong · 10/15/20
Really interesting and useful podcast that takes the time to explain terms used. Especially found the one on hemiplegic migraine interesting.
Lonimonsta via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/28/20
This is an intelligent and infmorative podcast presented by experienced medical professionals, but in an easy, conversational style. I like that research is referenced and jargon explained. I've learned such a lot that I'll be able to act on immediately, especially around medication use...Read full review »

Im from a country with a far smaller population than UK so i dont think our healthcare is as advamced or knowledgeable in this area as the Drs here on this podcast. Excellent presenters, guests and topics and indepth knowledge
d'a wifey via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/10/20
I highly recommend this podcast as a chronic migraine sufferer. It’s great to hear so many caring knowledgable voices discussing important topics. As a mid 30’s woman who has had migraine since my late teens I’ve learnt a lot. Thank you.

Empowering people who suffer from migraines through information! Being able to access the expertise of the Migraine Clinic from South Africa by means of the podcasts is amazing.
Sophia Venter via Apple Podcasts · South Africa · 04/14/20
This has been such an excellent resource. I especially found the mental health episode extremely useful - mainly because it made me feel like I wasn’t alone in how I feel and what I’m going through. Thank you for making this podcast 👏
Blm2013 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/08/20
Love the UK NHS doctors wisdom about treatment about migraine. I’ve had migraine for 10 years I’ve learned things about migraine on this podcast neglected, or not explained well by my US doctors. Especially liked hormone episodes and overuse of NSAIDs and triptans. “It’s the number of days, not...Read full review »

I was recommended this podcast by my GP and went straight for the hormone and migraine episode. I am a 38 yr old who had a hysterectomy in December because of fibroids.

Delighted to listen to this podcast. I had considered travelling to see Dr Anne McGregor! Wonderful to listen to her, thank you 😊

What an informative and down to earth podcast. I was reassured many times that I am up to date with the latest research and practice in this field, and that I am heading the right way on my migraine journey, but also surprised to find out that preventative medication should be stopped after...Read full review »

These GPs from the National Migraine Centre really know their stuff. The tips they give in each of these excellent podcasts are well worth knowing, both for migraine sufferers and their supporters.

Just listened to the episode on Triptans - found it very informative and helpful, these doctors know a lot more than the average GP and really seem to understand what migraine sufferers are going through.
NonActor via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/16/19
This podcast is a valuable and welcome addition to the NMC support offerings. It’s great to hear the doctors discuss topics and to be able to gain more information than is possible in the 1:1 sessions. Could I please request that a future podcast focuses on diet as I recently had a brief chat...Read full review »

This podcast is great, it’s nice to hear caring experts covering lots of topics (for chronic & episodic migraine)to do with migraine. Keep up the good work, can’t wait to hear more!
Kelliblanchett via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/05/19
This podcast is a revelation. The NMC do crucial work for us sufferers but, as a charity, rely on word of mouth and people need to be made aware of their great work. These episodes have great insight and advice from headache specialists, insightful patient testimonies, guests from across the...Read full review »

A great 1st podcast & this one is on the 4 stages of Migraine. Listen to Drs who work at this charity, & also patients who talk about different ways in which their migraines present. Educational & professional but also easy listening. Look forward to more in the series.
