Still at home. Still want to drill holes in my head

[cupcake_goth]

Thank goodness for being able to log into work from home, let me tell you. Because I can look at a computer screen and work with a migraine, I just need to be someplace where I can take lots of breaks to hide in a dark room. (Or possibly throw up. That hasn't happened yet with this particular migraine, and whooo, I hope it doesn't.)

Dear weaselmom, I know that I've tried Excedrin Migraine, and all it did was make me wired from the amount of caffeine in it. But thank you for suggesting it.

Dear domestinatrix, thank you for telling me about how roasted potatoes and kale make a complete protein. Guess what I had for lunch? Along with some of that triple-cream goat milk version of Brie on apple slices. I may be woozy and in pain, but at least my lunch was delicious.

There's other nonsense going on that has made the past few days not exactly stellar ones. Dear Universe, start treating everyone kindly, okay?

I am so sorry to hear that my beloved miracle cure didn't work out for you! Here's something weird: Ordinarily I'm very susceptible to caffeine, but with this particular thing, the EM actually helps me sleep. (Maybe it's the cessation of pain that helps.) I wish I had something that could help you. ::pets::

Roasted potatoes and kale? Did you make it, or get it somewhere? Cause if you made it, while you had a migraine, I am very impressed. And if you got it somewhere, I wanna know where.

Have you considered getting a prescription med for your migraines? Like, say, zomig? Works good for me, when I get one...mine is the melt-on-your-tongue stuff, which is good if you get nausea with migraines.

I made it, but it was dead easy. The potatoes were Alexia -brand frozen potato wedges that I tossed in the oven for 20 minutes or so, and kale just needs to be torn into chunks and boiled for five minutes. I can do that much when I have a migraine, but not much more.

I haven't looked into prescription meds for my migraines, because I know exactly what triggers them: either my neck has gone slightly out of whack and I need to see my chiropractor, or the weather is being extremely changeable, and nothing will make my sinuses stop hurting.

[mearagrrl.livejournal.com]

Well, prescription meds might help the latter, or do something about the former until you can get to the chiro. IJS.

oh honey!! I am so sorry to hear that the migraine is still eating you!!!

No good at all. Have you KIB'd your brainmeats yet?

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Yep, just did that. Here's hoping it helps.

amen, sister.

I don't get migraines often - and when I do it's usually a sinus migraine. Sometimes taking an Acetaminophen tablet with 1 Excederin or Ibuprofen helps...

At any rate - I hope you're feeling better soon!

Gads I hope this clears for you soon. What a PITA to have this go on and on. :::hugs:::
