Last fall we bought a high definition television. I was excited to get a new TV but disappointed when I found it made my headaches worse. I can only manage to watch it for a couple of hours, especially when I have a migraine.
I have found an alternative. My vision tends to be affected by my migraines making it difficult to read or concentrate on things I need to look at. My alternative is books on CD. I received an MP3 player for Christmas and I download the books onto it. I often listen to them as I do things and on my walks. I even listen to them with a eye mask on, they can distract me from the pain soemtimes.
Music can soothe your soul!! I'd much rather have it in the background when I write or whispering in my ears when my headache digs in. Sounds like you're on the right track!!
