Many people who suffer from migraines... know their own trigger factors. For example, red wine, hard cheeses/hard meats can be one. Bright lights (even the sun) without sunglasses can be another. Low pressure fronts can be one as well. Some of the factors you can eliminate, some you can reduce, and some you can take medication (not narcotics) to prevent one.

For me, this puts the issue to rest. She knows her migraine triggers. She takes meds to abort the migraines. She does not take preventative meds, which tells me, as a migraine sufferer, ... her migraines DO NOT seriously affect her ability to function.

Actually, the smart move is to now ask the President to now release his, as a show of good faith.And while he's at it, she should challenge him to a drug test too.
To: GoCards
The issue isn’t weather the media will still make an issue (they might). But now, they risk looking “mean” in the eyes of the general public. Obviously the lefty crazies will hate her anyway, but the vast middle don’t like them to pile on for no reason (and some of them are migraine sufferers or have family/friends who are). It now looks like she’s not hiding anything. She has something lots of people have, and deal with, and it sounds like she lives with it without being incapacitated. At least that’s’ my take. We’ll see.
I really detest the lefty press. I wish they all had MY migraines! I’d be glad to share them. :)

Yes, after she released this she does, agreed.She wlll do well in the up and coming debate in which this will be all forgotten.To address your other comments from another thread.I support no one person right now. I support all tea party candidates,Bachmann,Perry,Cain and West and Palin if they run. My dream candidate is LTC West but I see no need to bash any tea party candidates in my support and wish that he would run. Obviously I do not take well to others bashing tea party candidates, is all.

What about Husseins medical records. Hah!
There isn't a veterinarian in the country that would dare divulge the medical past of 0bama.

Yeah just as the smart ones like Karl Rove claim this is a big issue and she needs to get out in front of it.

I'll vote for Michele Bachmann - wonderful person and a great candidate. She blows all the RINOs out of the water, and that includes Perry and Romney.

Michelle Bachmann is doing the reasonable, honest thing by releasing Doctor Monahan's note about her migraine headaches and how they are handled. Trying to ignore or dismiss the issue would just lead to more questions from the MSM ("what is she hiding?). However, with this and her own statement, she has thoroughly addressed the 'issue' and can now refer all questions to this doctor's statement (and her own) and justifiably dismiss it as 'old news'. If the MSM won't let it go, that will be seen as nothing but harassment and will help Bachmann more than it will hurt her. Besides, for Republicans, you either like her as a presidential candidate or you don't (or prefer someone else, as I do). This migraine headache thing isn't going to dissuade any Republican that supports Bachmann and for those who never supported her candidacy, it won't matter.

Sorry but your tag line gives you away. Just the other day even here on FR people were saying she needs to release medical records on this. I wouldn't call this a "little thing" either. No doubt every campaign stop she's had this week this subject has come up. Pawlenty was asked about it, so was Ron Paul. Kind of hard to just ignore it and move on.
Also, IIRC, Palin supporters didn't ignore it and move on when she was accused by the MSM of not knowing what the purpose of Paul Revere's midnight ride was. We could probably consider that "little things" too, no?
