A day in the life.....

Frova not working,Pain is still lurking,Nauseous and dizzy for days. Looking for pills,As my head swells,I can't stay like this all day! Three hours away from Status Migraine,And finally - a break!Second Frova kicked in,What a day this has been,Now finally! I can get some sleep!
