I am one of those people who always tries to find the good in things, even the bad things.  But I can't find the good in this.  I am in pain 3 or 4 days out of every 5.  I take pills almost every day that have ruined my stomach.  I can only take certain combinations of pills at specific intervals so I don't spend the rest of the day or night puking my guts out. 

 

This disease has infiltrated every aspect of my life and there's nothing good about it.  I go to work, I have a migraine, I suffer all day.  I go to the gym, I have a migraine, I work out and it makes it worse.  I go to dinner with friends, I have a migraine, I can't eat because I'm nauseous.  I go on vacation, I have a migraine, I miss out on time with my loved ones. There is no great esoteric meaning to my suffering or anyone eleses for that matter.  Migraine Disease just sucks!

 

We all found this website for a reason.  We all suffer, whether we suffer from the migraines or suffer because we are watching someone we love with migraine disease.  So I ask, is there a reason for the suffering?  I don't think so.  I don't believe that God or any higher power would single out a few people to be in constant pain for no reason.  What do you think?
