Yes, I got a blankety blank migraine last night. But I'm looking on the bright side. I made it four full weeks from the last one. That's the best I've done all year. And the Imitrex knocked it right out immediately. And I was PMS, as I was when I got the last one, so it would figure that was the prime time for one. I don't think I've EVER made it through my PMS week without a mig.
So I'm starting the count over at Day 1 today. There's a few possible triggers today I need to watch out for: 1. Migraine hangover (that icky feeling like after IBS-D, wrung out like washrag -- I need a nap) 2. PMS of course 3. BRIGHT sunshine (it's practically give me a migraine just sitting indoors!) 4. Flickering or glary light at a meeting I'm going to tonight.
So wish me luck. If I make it through Day 1, I'll let you know!
Be well! LauraSue

Thanks, Shell. LOVE the pic of you and Shane in Vegas! You both look so happy (and healthy and slim!) Are you maintaining your weight loss now that you're back home? Hope so!

Stupid migraines!!!
Well, you know the saying... Every rose has it's thorn!! I suppose, regardless of how careful you are, you're allowed to have one bad day... Right? I hope next month you're able to avoid it! Glad you were able to nip it in the butt right away!!
By the way... Congratulations on making it as far as you did!!! That's so awesome!!

I'm so sorry LauraSue!! I was so hoping that it would continue for you. At least you had a really good streak. Next time will be longer.
Things are still the same for me. A few good days and then a few bad days. I just want to be NORMAL. I know you know how that feels.

Although it stinks that you got a migrane, making it 28 days without one is GREAT! You're my hero ! I wish I could make it one week without one of them. Oh, well. We'll both have to keep trying. I hope you can make it another month without one.

Aww, shoot... that stinks. But I'm glad you're looking on the bright side, because you DID just go longer than you have all year, and that's an accomplishment!
Lots of luck avoiding triggers today, and feel better soon!
