Answer a few specific questions about your headaches and we'll define it in medical terms for your physician.

This program is available to the general public, free of charge, in order to improve the diagnosis of headaches in the general population. This is not an advertisement of a commercially driven program. The content is based upon universally accepted headache classifications but it is not intended to make a medical diagnosis, it is a tool that lets you better describe your headaches in pertinent terms. Many people are unable to express all of their symptoms to their doctor because of time limitations and the patient not knowing what information is important. Your Headache Defined is a computer program that knows how to ask the questions that best express your individual story based on your answers to the questions presented. At the completion of this short question session, you may print out a report that summarizes and organizes your story. This report may assist you to have a more efficient discussion with your doctor. All you need to do is respond to the friendly video nurse and the expert system will ask you a series of questions that are the most appropriate to your individual responses. Take a few minutes and give it a try.
