Migraine day 4

Migraine day 4

This will be brief because I don’t have too much energy for concentration. I just can’t get out of the migraine cycle. I took my migraine pill yesterday didn’t help. Took it again today and that’s really not good. I take a preventative medicine for migraines, Topiramate. I’ve been taking Topiramate for 4 years increasing from 25mg to my current dosage of 75mg. My doctor just increased the dosage and the times I take it. Now I’m taking 100mg but…

Out to lunch

Out to lunch

Taking a decompression day. Migraine day 3. My migraines aren’t usually to the degree that I need to be in bed but when you’ve had this underlying pain in your head for days, you start to go somewhat mad. That’s how I feel today. My right eye is slightly twitching and the dull constant pain is just making me crazy. So I’m “out to lunch” for the day. Will take one of the 6 migraine pills I’m given each month…

DoTerra Oils omg

DoTerra Oils omg

I am so into these oils. They’re not like oils you can buy at any store. These are the purest form of the oil. Stores carry oil’s that are synthetically made and have other chemicals in it to give it to the scent. They might have some of the pure oil but it is mixed with other things. DoTerra is pure directly from the plant itself giving all the true benefits of each oil. Trust me, there’s a huge difference….

It’s just one of those MS days

It’s just one of those MS days

It is just one of those days when things are more difficult. It could be chalked up to sleep, I definitely didn’t sleep well last night. Most people would probably blame the weather. I don’t get this one honestly. I find my doctors and therapists blame the weather an awful lot when I have a “bad day”. I get the heat sensitivity one because I live that one but today it is 78 and cloudy. So today it’s blamed on…

Social security disability doctor evaluation not what I thought….

Social security disability doctor evaluation not what I thought….

I spent the morning in the doctor’s office for my daughter. I had a 9:00 appointment and wasn’t seen until after 10:00. It wasn’t because she was sick. It wasn’t because we needed to run tests. It wasn’t even an appointment made at our request. It was made because social security required an outside doctor to meet with her for her social security disability application. I thought it was odd, my daughter is deaf, she has prosthetic hearing in the…

Migraines with multiple sclerosis

Migraines with multiple sclerosis

This is the strangest topic with multiple sclerosis because migraines themselves are a very tough thing to medically see and explain. Migraines don’t show up on any MRI, blood work or Cat Scan. Doctor’s go solely on the patients account of the symptoms. The National Multiple Sclerosis Societyhttp://www.nationalmssociety.org/Symptoms-Diagnosis/MS-Symptoms/Headache  says this about headaches: Although headache is not a common symptom of MS, some reports suggest that people with MS have an increased incidence of certain types of headache. One report noted…
