I don't know what triggered them.  Maybe it was going without Cymbalta for two days (I ran out).  But my ice pick headaches came back!  This time instead of attacking me in the temple, they stabbed me more in the right part of the back of my head!!!  I took Imitrex and such hoping it'd make them go away permanently but didn't work. 

 

I can't go to my neuro because I can't afford him anymore, no insurance.  And he refuses to discount his fees.  So I am seeking a new neuro who has more compassion and less greed.

 

At least my husband finally won his SSDI so we have a little money coming in.  I'm still waiting for my hearing date for my SSDI.

 

Right now my RA is the aggressive disease.  My rheumy has doubled my methotrexate in hopes of getting my SED rate down.  For the last four months it's gone from 59, 57, 52, 50.  It's supposed to be under 20.

 

I love the summer.  The heat helps take the pain away.  But the sun is not good for my eyes.  Can't handle the sunlight so I wear two pairs of sunglasses LOL.  But it's worth it for the heat.  Can't handle cold at all.
