I have been in bed pretty much straight since Sunday at 1 oclock or so with a migraine. I don’t have the energy or brain power to say anything much about migraines except they are awful. If you have never had one, you don’t know how debilitating they are. I myself used to tease my buddy who had them starting at 11 or so, “what do you mean you have a headache?!?!!” Little did I know.
It’s not all gloom and doom, I weighed in yesterday, shedding much of the 5 plus pounds I gained last week. Unfortunately, as I said above, I am pretty much cut off from the world at the moment, locked in a dark room, waiting for the world to stop spinning and my head to stop pounding. So, my activity is pretty low the last 48 hours, read non-existant.
As shitty as my headaches can be, life always will show you that you need to put on your big boy pants, and realize it could be much much worse. A friend of mine I have known for 30 years is at a childrens hospital right now learning what can be done to help his little girl who, already having lived a very difficult life health wise in her 8 years, is now in the fight for her life. Compared to that, I have no problems.
Ok, back to my dark little dungeon to ride this out.
Hope you feel better! I once had a terrible headache not too long ago and felt like I was going to throw up. It came on very sudden and I’d never felt like that before. Turned out later my Mom said she got those and they were migraines!!! I feel for you! Get some rest…
Hope you are feeling better and well done on your weigh-in!
Ugh, migraines are the worst! Feel better soon and take it easy. If you haven’t talked to your doctor about them yet, see if they can’t help you identify triggers. My mother stopped getting them when she cut out foods containing MSG. Before that she used to get them at least once a month.
I’ve had lots of migraines in my time. Glad you’re feeling better.
Goodluck with that migraine! And I hope all goes well with your friends daughter.
Glad there were some good things! I used to think my significant other just had hangovers all the time before we started dating… even though I had migraines, his were constant. Little did I know that my judgement was so off base.
Hmmm, I meant to say glad you had a good thing (shedding the lbs).
Migraines suck! The wonderful neurology team at The Unversity of Michigan have refered me to pain managment because of my migraines. Which I’m having one now. Time to give myself an injection to stay out of the ER! Feel better!
