I tossed and turned.  Yup, you guessed it, I had a migraine!   I could not get comfortable. But it wasn't just me and the migraine in my bed. So were my husband and my dog. And poor them... they didn't have a migraine. So the 4 of us, my husband, my dog, the Beastie and myself all tossed and turned last night. When the beastie joins us, I want that bed all to... http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/19682/whos-bed http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/19108/disease Sun Jan 13 09:34:00 -0500 2008 Kelly I did it! I told someone that I have an invisible disease. And it felt so good! I don't get out much due to my headaches, so my friends and acquintences who know I have migraine and New Persistant Daily Headache (NPDH) often get updates from my husband on how I am doing or contact me through email.  Well, I'll give you one guess what is one of the first things they say when they do see me?!?! You guessed it!... http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/19108/disease http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/17539/laughed-smiled Sat Dec 08 22:47:00 -0500 2007 Kelly Yesterday I felt like I was standing in the middle of a see-saw. Was my migraine finished? Sometimes when it is licked, it is difficult for me to tell because I have NPDH and that pain is exacerbated by the migraine. The migraine pain had been going on for 7 days, with some intervals during my rescue meds of relief. But, on the whole, I was worn out and ready to be finished of course...hoping the see-saw tilted finally to kicking this... http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/17539/laughed-smiled http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/17026/headache-appt Wed Nov 28 15:18:00 -0500 2007 Kelly It has only been 2 months or so, but it seems like forever. I have learned SO much from being on this website, reading shareposts and talking to others on the forum.  I cannot wait to ask him all of the questions I have. He is not going to know what hit him (or me!) I am a little nervous, but I'm mostly excited. Here's to a good appointment!  http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/17026/headache-appt http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/16880/sensitive-smell Sun Nov 25 19:11:00 -0500 2007 Kelly I'm really sensitive to a couple of things consistently: sound and smell, though not as intensely as when I am in the middle of a migraine. (Then, I cannot stand ANY sound or ANY touch or ANY smell.) I have thought the daily thing is perhaps a part of my NDPH or a side-effect of a med I'm on.  But, regardless, I'm really sensitive to smell and sound.  Tonight, I was getting a piece of cheesecake (yum!)... http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/16880/sensitive-smell http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/16466/cries-shower Thu Nov 15 17:31:00 -0500 2007 Kelly My husband cries in the shower. It used to be that I heard him through the door. My dog would nervously pace near the door's opening and sniff at the base of the door frantically. I would sit there, not knowing what to do. Before we were married, I could not enter, but just wait until he emerged red faced. My husband's wails had sailed through the house and pierced me. Now that he knows I can hear him, he cries quietly there. But, I... http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/93031/16466/cries-shower
