Migraine Misery

[christa]

Well, my migraine broke through last night. Big time! Worse than ever. I've never thrown up before from a migraine . . . last night I *almost* did . . . I finally went to sleep with cold rags on my eyes. I was miserable. Slept for 13 hours straight . . . got up, still had it.

I ended up taking 3 Excedrin Migraine (you're only supposed to take 2 in 24 hours) . . . sure it made me feel drunk and nauscious, but it helped. Made it bearable.

Right now, it's just low grade. I'm hoping I'm near the end.

Shew, I hate this!

I sometimes get them so bad my eyes water.
I usually have functional ones - not the kind that I can't get out of bed with. I did have one of those last year and stayed home from work for 2 days.
What helps me the most is benedryl and ibprofen. I also have a migraine pillow that has a flap that you slide a frozen gel pack in and it works wonders.
