Weekend Migraine

 oh man. I was so ill this weekend gone. Migraine was full on back to 2019 Migraines where I was wanting to hit my head and smash it against a wall to stop the pain. 

Still no idea what it was, some kind of 48hr flu i guess, started off on the Friday, i started getting an itchy eye and knew it would lead to a migraine plus being on my period, which i've noticed a serious pattern with. Migraines likely hormone related. 

Had to call in sick at work and spent the whole weekend in bed, luckily my Dad had little man over night, wow, I full on just wanted to chop my head off. The migraine was just so bad. I took my prescribed painkillers and they didn't even touch the sides. I was reluctant to take any more and didn't even want to try co-codeamol as I didn't eat for around 48hrs or so, so I knew they would make me feel dizzy and drunk so I just had to ride it through. I spent the Saturday sleeping on and off, I think I counted i had slept for around 20hrs. 

Sunday was better, the migraine was coming in waves, but by Monday it had pretty much gone. Rough rough weekend!

Covid Migraine

 I tested positive for Covid 6 days ago, i'm so tired and absolutely no energy at all. I survived the weekend with no migraine however now the side affects are wearing off now the migraine starts. Its only a couple of hours in, it's not the worse but we'll see how things go tonight. I've just had 5 days off work so shouldn't have anymore really.  My doctor prescribed me a double dosage of sumatriptan, so they should last a bit longer at least

1 year later

Its been 2 weeks since my last migraine, i'm sat here on the sofa in my new-ish house, alone thinking about when my last attack was and though a little update was needed. so from the intro, yes i have moved house. I was in my flat just over a year, enough was enough. That flat although it had many highs- most importantly being mine and chris's first home together .. everyone has to start somewhere, my parents first lived in a caravan together i believe. With that flat came a lot of dark times, mostly within myself. Stressed every day, stressed beyond explanation, and now i cant even remember why i was so stressed. I hated that flat so much. It had damp everywhere, it was cold, or stuffy, it was loud, always felt anxious when i was alone. Chris was constantly sneezing or he had a blocked nose or sore throat, the damp was messing with his sinuses, and the damp was also a huge factor towards my migraines (i believe) for last year. I have been in my new house for around 6 weeks, ...
