Migraines Suck

Potential Migraine Triggers:
everything I love.....

sugar
chocolate
nuts
bread/wheat
diet cola
cheese
watching TV in the dark

using my laptop (too long; how long is too long BTW?)

playing PoppIt on the computer

breathing

Notice I didn't say alcohol; haven't had a drink for 2 months. Haven't missed it either. Eliminating the wine hasn't helped a bit.

What am I going to do? I'm fed up, worn out, shipwrecked, desperate. I could try this ancient Egyptian cure shown in the drawing here. Who knows; it might work.

This is a devil of a disease, chronic and tenacious. It will get fixed. It will. Tuesday I see the doc again and we'll re-negotiate another tactic. There's got to be something out there that will work.

  1. Hi, Kate. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Just wanted to suggest acupucture if you haven't tried it. It's been gaining acceptance in the anesthesia literature for nausea prevention, and if I'm not mistaken there's some supportive European literature regarding its use for headache management.

    I love chocolate, cheese, and sugar too...sigh...

  2. So sorry to hear this continues....Maybe time for a look-see inside?
