Migraine solution
I have an AMAZING solution for migraine headaches. Diath piercings. It is suggested that you have the side that you get your migraine on pierced, but since my headaches tend to switch sides, I had both sides done. It's been more than a year, and I have only had one migraine, and that was my fault due to not eating anything. As soon as I put some protein in my body, the headache went away.
That's wonderful to hear! Sorry to hear about the Meniere's though.
How much does the weather play a role with your migraine
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.… read more
daith piercing
I got the @piercing in my right ear about 4-5 years ago now. I had been having extreme migraines since middle school.

I would have to be taken to the hospital and given morphine shots to settle my head because 800 mg @ibuprofen , @advil, alive, even excedrin migraine and extra strength wouldn't cure it. In the 4-5 years I maybe have had 3- 4 bad… read more

What letter would you write to your family and friends?
Could it be cathartic to write a letter to your friends and family, expressing your feelings about life with migraines? Even if they never read it? This was mine:
"A letter to my Family and friends" On this day, I walked out side into the morning sunshine. In this moment of this day, I feel joy. I am optimistically cautious as I emerge into the warmth of the light, away from where the curtains remain drawn. As I write this to you, I feel a smile on my face… read more

Just a little funny question.
Idk if many of you have seen the Friday the 13Th movies. If you have you know the song that the kids in one of them sing. "1-2 Freddy's comming for you. 3-4 better lock the door. " and so on.

1-2 I am ok how are you?
3-4 I don't want to be here no more.
5-6 I am out of this.
7-8 I vomited all I ate.
9-10 Better haul me in.
Well I hope I made… read more

Mine are weed killers and fertilizers, Fabreeze anything, petroleum hot tar, cologne and even deodorant (especially strong scented men's deo., cigar cigarette smoke, mowing of lawns. Scented candles and room deodorizers.i find I am becoming more sensitive as I get older . Mold, bonfires, fireplaces, cleaning supplies, even dust. Anyone relate?
Cleansers are the worst for me. Especially pine sol and fabuloso.
