  1. Jan4/10. Another one starting I can feel it in my neck and face.
  2. It has been a good few days. No migraines to report.
  3. They have done all kinds of brain scans. I do know that migraines are genetic and they have no cure as of yet.
  4. The ones that last only a day I can take. It is the ones that last longer are SO unbearable. I have had to have medical intervention for some. I have had one where I threw up 47 times in one day and was almost on the verge of total dehydration. I was on an Army exercise. They had to hospitalize me and shoot me full of morphine. I had another one that lasted 9 days............. that was SO bad.
  5. I know my mother tried Biofeed back years ago.....maybe something like that?
  6. It takes a bit of time, but yes. I guess it is the vasoconstriction that drives my blood pressure up as well.
  7. It goes high after the attack starts. Usually mine is lower end of normal...110/70.....when I have an attack it is 140/90. I think that is my body's reaction to severe pain though.
  8. Dec 21 Second migraine since recording...start time about 4pm. I think it is a response to the total relief of a month of worry. It happens sometimes when I am relieved. Severely sensitive to sound and so tired I can barely stay awake. Severe pain in my neck and feel sick to my stomach. Mental confusion. Pain in my face. Pains in my ear. Changes in personality. Easily angered.
  9. I have not tried that, no. Metro. My mom tried them and they did not do much. I am not sure I want to try that though. I want to try to be drug free as possible.
  10. I have looked at that Penelope. I only have some of the features, but I more closely resemble migraines as I have the nausea and aversions to noise and light. ALso the time factors are different. My headaches last a min of 14 hours usually, sometimes up to 9 days. I do not have any significant breaks in the headaches of a few months or a few years. I have been pretty consistant since I was 25. On average I get about 10 a month or more. I have had CT scans that have found nothing wrong with the formation of my brain. I have yet to have an MRI though. It is worth looking into though. If you have anymore info on migraines etc that would be great. My mother has had them since she was 3 and my son has them too.
  11. I guess the premis is to track the number of days that I do have migraines, symptoms and severity and a search to find things that bring relief. Day one. I woke this morning with one. Once again always left sided. The left side of my head and face are numb. The sinus on my left side is in agony as well as my jaw and nose and under my eye. I am pretty unmotivated as a result even when I have a ton of stuff to do. I guess on a scale of 1 to 10, ten being the worst, the pain is about 7 so I can still deal with it. My neck and back muscles are also killing me. Only on my left side mind you.
  12. Be My Light.......the personal writings of Mother Teresa.
  13. I will add some of mine soon, photography is an interest of mine too.
  14. I am sorry for you loss AVMAN. It is so hard to lose someone you know and care about to domestic violence. My mom's best friend, my "aunt" who I knew since birth was taken that way. Anyone in a violent situation I plead with you to leave !! Please!
