Migraines!!!

For the past 5 days I have been dealing with stupid migraines. I get them every now and then for odd reasons but this time has been the worst I a while. I was pretty much out of it for the weekend. When I get a migraine I’m not nauseous, sensitive to light nor loud sounds. I juts get the pounding pain and the lethargic feelings that come with being “out of it”.

Well I guess things change with age. In the past I have been very successful with slowing down and meditating to ease the pain. After about an hour of this I’d be fine. My serotonin levels would be back to normal and back to life. This time around, I noticed that I was feeling slightly nauseous. Nothing severe but not the norm. And no matter how long I tried to focus elsewhere, the pain would break my concentration. So I headed to the doctor Monday morning. After going through the usual routine of FAQ’s and the collection of vitals, I was sent on my merry way with pain meds and a referral to go see a Neurologist just to see if everything is ok.

Needless to say, at times during the day, it’s been a bit hard to focus but I’m pushing through. The painkillers are a big help. I find it funny that they are supposed to make me sleepy and I have yet to feel the effects of being drowsy. I guess that’s a good thing. I’m still able to work on projects and all the other fun stuff I like to do.
