I have been taking daily meds for migraine for almost 10 years, and my headaches are under control. In fact, I wondered just the other day if I still really needed them.
Today I got my answer.
After a particular bumpy plane ride to Kansas City, I was not only nauseous but in the throes of a full-blown migraine. And my meds? They were in my checked bag.
Ouch, ouch, ouch.
Migraine Barbie’s aura might look like candy, but she and I know that it hurts like a mother. And when I didn’t get the meds within the first 30 minutes of the headache, I just had to ride it out. Lie in the dark and sleep it off.
Which is what I did. Hence today’s really late post.
So, what did we learn? Well, I do still need my meds. I can still get air sick from time to time, too. And probably most importantly…
Keep your damn headache pills close at hand, sister.
My sympathies – I udnerstand where you are coming from migranes are awful
I rarely ever experience a mild headache so I have no way to properly relate to the pain a migraine can inflict. Maybe someday they will find a “cure” or invent a process where you can remove your head for a while and put in the freezer.
You poor thing, I hope you feel better today xx
Much better, thanks Shar.
