All tagged IIH Awareness Month
IIH or Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension is a rare brain disease that I was diagnosed with in 2014. I want to share how brain fog affects me as someone with IIH headache. Brain fog is not a medical term, but a term for those who experience a groggy mind. I’m going to explain how brain fog and headaches impact my life and share my tips for better managing the symptoms of brain fog.
For IIH Awareness Month, Amy has written this amazing guest blog about her experience as a 24 year old, newly single mum of a one year baby boy, recently diagnosed with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension or IIH after suffering from crippling hypertension headache. She’s written an open letter to IIH about her lonely challenge of living with this rare brain condition.
I asked 6 amazing mums from the IIH UK Facebook support group, about their secrets as a mum with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension or IIH, to help other mums in a similar position. We’ve done this in the hope that we can fundraise for IIH UK during IIH Awareness Month by sharing how IIH affects us as and our children to raise awareness of this rare brain disease.
