Migraine Yesterday

Tweet

I had a migraine yesterday, it actually started on Tuesday about 2 pm and lasted till yesterday at about noon. I get them about once a month or so, and have been getting them for years. I also deal with headaches that just linger for days. I like when people say, "you should see a doctor" or "have you seen a doctor". Like I haven't went to a doctor after all these years. Of course I have, many actually. If you have ever had a real migraine you know the pain and discomfort and the disruption to life, how could you not go see a doctor. Here is the problem I am at now. I have seen so many doctors and nothing seems to help. They start with the take more caffeine, take less caffeine, cut stress out of your life, here take this drug, take that drug, take this and that drug, why are you taking that drug? I'm down to bread and water and they still think it something I am eating. LOL It just seems I spend a lot of money for nothing to change so I kind of gave up on going to the doctor. What I have learned is this, for sure to much time in the sun gives me a migraine, so I avoid being in the sun for to long and I always wear a hat when I am out. I don't eat chocolate or to spicy of foods cause they seem to trigger a migraine. I try to do daily stretching and walks to lower stress on the body in hopes that is helping. I wear sunglasses even if it is only a little bright out to avoid the bright light. Other than that I deal with it as best I can and hope I don't get a migraine. If you get them what do you do to try and avoid getting them?
