Migraine

i know i've had a past post with this topic, but what can i say, it fits.

so, i guess this is the sequel post to 'balancing act'. sunday i ended up with a monster of a migraine due to my own reluctance to take medication because i was unsure if it was a rebound or migraine, by 8 pm i was sure it was a migraine.

today, i woke up feeling good, finally recovered after feeling wiped out yesterday from sunday's battle.

now, i got an aura. i haven't seen an aura since i started amitriptyline in september, so i don't know what to expect from this migraine. i took my imatrex, hopefully within the 20-30 minute window i have for it to work, and hopefully it will work.

i'll keep you all posted on what happens, now i just sit and wait and hope for the best.

darn, i thought sunday was just a fluke. i'm not a fan of this every other day stuff, i hope this trend doesn't continue.

thanks for the support, i love you all for just being there and understanding.

I really hope the imitrex works for you. Since aura is a fairly new symptom for you, you might want to call your doctor and tell him as soon as you can. Let us know how you're feeling!

the imatrex worked/is working enough that i just want to sleep rather than die, which is nice.

nearly all the migraines i've gotten have been with aura. when i started taking amitriptyline daily, the aura went away and the migraines were less frequent and severe (for the most part). this is the first migraine with aura i have had since starting the amitriptyline.

Elayna,

I am hoping you can get some rest, I am keeping my fingers crossed that the imitrex works Know that we are always here for you.

I'm glad to hear your Imitrex is working for you.... I hope you get to lie down for a nap soon.

Feel better!

Elayna,

Try to get a little rest...the mig probably has a better chance of passing if you can get a little sleep soon.

Imitrex, keep working!!!

i went to bed early last night to sleep off the pain and nausea that the imatrex didn't fix. this morning i woke up feeling pretty good, hopefully it will last. thanks for all the love and support.

Yippie! I'm so happy you're feeling better

Glad you are feeling a bit better!!!!
