I had one of those bad migraines the last couple of days. The sort that goes away with Excedrin at first, then comes back and stays now matter how many hours or pills pass by (so after Thursday afternoon all through to mid-(3am)morning Friday taking Excedrin, I stopped taking anything.) It’s energy stealing, it’s what makes me give up and go to bed. Thank God that DH was here all week so that I had that ability yesterday and the day before. Today I woke up exausted, but not as much as the day before. So I got out of bed and came down, expecting to try to stay down as long as I could. I haven’t gone back to bed today, actually sort of thought of sitting a bit, but haven’t done much of that either. So it’s ended up being an alright day, but I’m fighting a switcheroo migraine on the right now, but it’s hovering, not killing me softly as of yet. In my words it’s a “Stay on my feet fightable one” right now. I have started back with the Excedrin, hoping for better results this time, like in, it goes away and leaves me alone for at least two days and nights full. I don’t have one every day, nor always one every month, but often I do have a few in a week or a couple of weeks separated in a month, but not necessarily, and sometimes it seems like I have a lot more, sometimes I do, but other times I go long, long stretches without one, but maybe not in the past year and a half. So I must say I know they are something that has probably become more problematic, and I really hope that in the next months I can get a better level with them.
