I ran across a great description of migraine on a fellow blogger's site, and wanted to share it with all of you. You can find her post HERE.

Wow!! That girl can write!! That's one of the best description I have ever read. Is this the Andrea that's on our board?

MJ-Thanks for sharing, that was "painfully" awsome!!

Thank you so kindly, folks!

Migraines are not the primary topic on my blog (I post on a variety of other disability issues, as I deal with a variety of problems), but do post about them intermittently (as thankfully, are my really severe migraines).

You might also find erm, interesting, this other post with quite a different description. It has links to other posts dealing with migraines at the bottom of the page. "Passing Out And Going Through (the migraine)"

I also blog about education, learning disabilities, and write posts now and then about insects. Bugs are fascinating and beautiful, really! I've also recently started putting up interesting pictures on Wordless Wednesdays.

Please do make comments on posts; I love hearing what people have to say, and have found so many wonderful new blogs this way!

Hi, Andrea, welcome. I like insects too; I have ever since I was in third grade.

Well done. Blinking

Hi, Andrea, and add a droolie welcome to the pile. I tried to read your blog entry on Saturday, but I had a beastie settling in, so I was a bit to fuzzy to really appreciate it. But what I did absorb I liked very, very much. Smiler
