I have the most excuriating migraine for 8 days now! I have gone to one of my physicans and it still here. I missed 2 days of work in 2 weeks and I cannot continue down this path. I am bout ready to chop my head off! I have taken my imitrex..it leaves but the next day it is back. I know that stress plays a factor in getting migraines at least in my life it does and right now the stress is intense. My father was hospitalized, amputated toe for diabetic disease (gangorie- spelling sorry) then moved to a nursing home for a few weeks. My father is 82-in the meantime my mother is now down to 83 pds and is living with my brother - why? Cuz they have a squatter in their house that won't leave and we, the kids, are going through court! This is bs and on top of that that squatter molestated my special needs 40 yr old sister to teach her bout "sex" - so do I have stress? YES and I can't relax..sleeping has always been hard for me 3-4 hours of sleep a day is what I live on now I am on less. I need a massage I think to work the pain out of my neck into my head but I simply do not have time! I work fulltime-school part-time soccer mom and single on top of that - my childrens' father doesn't help out he "lives too far away" and now my mom is being shipped round to us kids cuz we don't want her in her own HOME with that pervert!

 

Taking my imitrex for days in a row I am bound to get a rebound headache and maybe that is what this is but right now all I can think about is the pain to leave so I can do my speech - due Monday night - take a test due today at 11pm whcih I haven't even read the chapter yet and pick up my son at 400 from his dad's weekend and all I want is to have a day without pain pounding in my head!

 

sorry for venting but I believe is a blog so I am so blogging today! Sad
