Yes, I am. I am celebrating because (with an hour to go to bed-time) my 3-day migraine DID NOT come back today!!!
I was getting worried because even though I stayed in bed in the dark, it came back yesterday. I was reading a book for a while and the light might have been too glare-y. Normally I just do fun, peaceful things on the laptop like solitaire. So that's what I did today and didn't read my book, and it worked. Live and learn. I'm so happy!!! LauraSue. (I'm 54, have had severe migraines for over 4 years due to menopause, plus I have fibromyalgia. I take Imitrex plus Anaprox as an abortive and am working with my migraine specialist to find a preventive. I keep a detailed migraine diary and have made significant lifestyle changes to reduce my risk of migraines.) MENOPAUSE COUNTDOWN:  |

I'm glad you figured out what was at the root of the migraines return.
Take care. Deb  |

Only got one day off. The beastie is back today. It is what it is. I have "taken to my bed" like a lady in an old English novel. They've been coming every one or two days now for 4 months. Ick.

LauraSue, I was reading somewhere recently about the outmoded "rest cure" they used to prescribe for women migraine sufferers, and how it's no longer used. I smiled to myself and thought of you, and how successful your rest cure is for nipping your migraines.
 Hope you start feeling better soon. -MJ my blog: http://rhymeswithmigraine.blogspot.com/ "What will you do, if it does not turn out how you expect?" "I do not know.
