It first started with my vision when I was driving home from work in mid January 2023. And then early February I woke up one day with excruciating headache and eye pain blurry vision nausea dizziness and stabbing ear pain and ringing in my ears. And it’s been going on ever since. I went to see a neurologist and she diagnosed me with vertigo anxiety and migraine. She prescribed venlafaxine, which I didn’t take. I went to see another neurologist and he said that I have tension headache, anxiety… read more

I can't believe how much better I feel now that the temperature has dropped. There also does not seem to be the big fluctuations in the temperature, humidity and barometric pressure. The thing that is still messing with my head is precipitation. I know the day before it's going to rain, then it rains and then it takes a day to feel better. That's three days out of my life. Weather migraines are really bad, anybody else have them? In sure lots of us do. Anyone know how to avoid or cope… read more
Indeed. The migraine is bad enuf but the post migraine fatigue can last days for me. Drag!
My migraine triggers are barometric system (weather change) I get the migraine two days before the system arrives, once it arrives just like a snap of the fingers it’s gone! I live in WI
I’m looking to relocate for retirement (I thought AZ?)

I hope you do as well! Both of my parents had terrible migraines. My Dad had cluster type while my Mom had Chronic Migraine. I have tried B-2 and it didn't do much but upset my stomach. I also have… read more
The day after the migraine breaks is almost as bad as the migraine itself.
I take Aleve and sometimes I even need to take lorazepam. I also recently found that liquid IV helps.
As I tally my migraine days to report to my neurologist, I have just been including head pain days
I have other symptoms, like fatigue, fogginess, depression, inability to concentrate, mental and physical heavinedd, insomnia, sugar, cravings, and I don’t count those days of those symptoms as migraine days
Sometimes these symptoms are my prodromes and sometimes my “after” dromes.
I would love to know what people think about counting days of symptoms other than pain.
I am also aware that… read more
Yes
It’s as though using the word ‘migraine’ immediately translates to ‘headache’ and that’s the end of the conversation. Unless they have experienced it
And even among those of us who experience… read more
It's interesting you say that, because my VM's really kicked in after my Dad passes and we had been taking care of him for 10 years. It was very stressful and emotionally draining, not only on me but… read more
