title: Migraine in women twenty-six to forty-five years of age.
abstract: The following research was undertaken within a qualitative framework of analysis. The purpose of this ethnographic study was to explore women's experiences of migraine. Migraine as an illness remains largely misunderstood, misdiagnosed and mistreated. A major theoretical concern is to demonstrate the importance of placing patient's personal accounts of their experiences and understandings at the centre of nursing interest and practice.
