#Migraine as sensory processing disorder is the theory that makes most sense to me after 49 years of daily migraine (14 fully disabled). By the way, if I'm still sane next year, I intend to throw a virtual Migraine Golden Anniversary Party. Stay tuned. https://t.co/rB5dB0MYPm

What people are saying
The collective discussions express strong agreement with the article's focus on migraines as neurological sensory processing disorders, exemplified by mentions of the review's references, such as Goadsby et al.’s comprehensive 2017 publication, and personal testimonies emphasizing the theory's clarity for long-term sufferers. The tone and language reflect a high level of engagement and recognition of the article's importance for advancing understanding and treatment strategies.
Most discussions align strongly with the article's view of migraine as a neurological disorder involving sensory processing, with some critics disputing details but largely endorsing the core theory.
The discussions show high engagement and curiosity, with mentions of research studies, references, and long-term personal experiences, indicating deep interest.
Many posts reference specific scientific concepts, research reviews, and personal anecdotes, demonstrating meaningful engagement rather than superficial reactions.
The discussions suggest the article significantly influences how participants understand and approach migraine, recognizing it as a sensory processing disorder with implications for diagnosis and treatment.
Abstract in brief
- Migraine is a common neurological disorder characterized by abnormal sensory processing in the brain, and it has a long history of being studied, evolving from humoral and vascular theories to a clearer understanding of its neurological basis.
- The disorder involves a genetic predisposition that affects how the brain controls sensory inputs, leading to phases like premonitory symptoms, headache, and postdromal recovery, with specific brain pathways (like the trigeminal pathway) being key in its development.
- Advances in research have led to new treatments targeting various mechanisms such as serotonin receptors, CGRP pathways, and other neuromodulators, vastly improving understanding and management of migraines.]

@Lark_Goes_Dark @Kristacatlady At some point, neurologists will get around to taking #migraine out of the listing for headache disorders & classify it as a neurological disease on its own right & a sensory processing disorder, since that's what they think it is! https://t.co/I0DOJ0bZLa
@wisteriuw @beth_morton I think this Goadsby review, although somewhat dated from 2017, is still the best freely available summary of what we do and don't know regarding migraine pathophysiology and pharmacologic interventions https://t.co/QShrzceu00
“This cyclic behavior might thus reflect the increased susceptibility of the brain to generate the next attack, and the identification of its pacemaker would be crucial for our understanding of the start of a migraine attack.” https://t.co/lVhG6YemYt #Migraine https://t.co/twTDBdQlLP
