Migraine Genius

I meet a lot of women online (and a few IRL) that are fellow migraine sufferers, but, this one takes the cake! She is most definitely a Migraine Genius! What I mean by that is that she has found a way to channel her frustration with this often-debilitating condition and help the rest of us who suffer feel some camaraderie in a very special way! Her depictions describe so well what we all go through!

Barbie was worried she might not have enough drugs for her next migraine, she was going to call her doctor now!

Give Me Back My Words, Migraine!

You damn fool, migraine – sneaking into my beautiful Thursday morning and snatching precious vocabulary out of my brain! How dare you! That’s right – I know you’re there, I feel you coming. And more than that, my drastically-reduced mastery of the English language speaks of your imminent arrival! Be gone, you worthless bastard!

Look, you were just here on Monday – and in a BAD way, you struck me like you haven’t struck me in ages, forcing me to call my husband in tears, begging him to come home, because, it hurt so badly. Don’t you think you’ve done enough?! ….for at least a week or so?!

It’s a beautiful day, I’m starting the day showered AND dressed (oh, rareness!), my son gets to go to the Renaissance Faire, ALL three kids went to school (faire) in a GOOD mood (oh RARENESS of rareness!). I’m starting the day off happy and motivated – you should seriously leave now. You’re not welcome on days like today.

I know that my glands are still terribly sore and tender, and you view any neck or shoulder pain as a gold-embossed bloody invitation – but….

YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE TODAY! GET THE F*** OUT!

GO! GO NOW! BE GONE, MIGRAINE!

Migraines in the news

I love to read any and all information that I can about migraines. Even if this particular type doesn’t affect me, I still like to keep abreast of all the latest information on all kinds of migraines.
