As a public service, @headsUPmigraine is field-testing an @NHF article on #hemiplegic migraine!

❌ "Individuals with hemiplegic #migraine may have attacks frequently (once a week) or very infrequently (once a year)."

✔️ You can have this kind of fun ALL WEEK LONG!
✔️ "Notably, some...w/ hemiplegic migraine have unsteadiness or imbalance that isn’t just limited to their attacks of #migraine. In these individuals, incoordination/ imbalance progresses slowly over time and can be a permanent symptom."

❌ "fully reversible" HM @ihs_official
. @ihs_official I wish you were right that HM has "fully reversible motor weakness." I'm a 42-yr HM vet (50 yr daily CM). I've been homebound 15 yrs.

Tip to other rural HMers: a wheelbarrow is an excellent wheelchair replacement on grass but you need a St. Husband to drive you.
. @ihs_official Neither HM nor CM has "fully" reversible symptoms. @NHF article & Brennan describe my experience: #migraine symptoms stick if you do them every day. I'm HAPPY for difference bwn HM & stroke, but think you should include the "notably" note, too.
Big hand to the mutant mice.
