From a socio-anthropological perspective, this paper aims to contribute to the knowledge of suffering chronic migraine. For this reason, qualitative research was conducted through interviews with neurologists and people with this condition in a hospital in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The main objective is to explore, through the narratives of people suffering this condition, the experiences, daily practices and trajectories of care for this type of headache. Some features of migraine, which differentiate it from other chronic pain and influence the way patients relate to their environment, is that migraine does not allow to check facts and does not have a certain etiology or effective treatment. From this, the subjects say that in some cases, the pain is associated with the excuses and lack of legitimacy. Furthermore, through the stories, it is observed that migraine becomes part of the biography of the person. Finally, most patients said to have become accustomed to these headaches and have patience, something that affects the relationship with themselves and others.
