Poll – getting headache information

When it comes to living with migraine or headache, where do you get the most helpful information?  That was our poll question.  Here’s how you answered:

Obviously, the big winner was the internet at 50%.  Of course, that’s not surprising, since this was an internet poll on a headache website.  Still, with hundreds of visitors everyday, it’s true that many people are finding their information online nowadays.

Next on the list is doctors, at 14.7%.  That barely beat friends and family, at 12.2%.  I would suggest that it’s good to have a second opinion when using any of these 3 sources.  I get pretty suspicious if I hear something from one person, or see it on just one website, or even if I hear it from the doctor.

Books and other came next, and co-workers, news/media brought up the rear.  So – not really a surprise – the big winners were internet, doctors and friends/family.
