Edinburgh woman left in daily pain and unable to eat due to chronic illness

An Edinburgh woman is aiming to raise awareness and money for those suffering from migraines by running and marching 700,000 steps for the Migraine Trust this March.

The distance is equivalent to 300 miles and will be completed by Leither Katy Brown who has suffered from chronic migraines for the last ten years.

The 34-year-old entrepreneur says that she has to live with pain every day for the last seven years despite trying almost every medication or natural remedy there is to try to get rid of the serious health ailment. It has badly impacted her ability to pursue certain career avenues and Katy says that she has to set boundaries to better live with the debilitating condition.
