The heat is horrible right now....& I know when I wasn't drinking much, I wasn't producing much.....hardly any at all but a few drips....& couldn't even sweat.....which is really hard on the kidneys.

I can relate to the migraine meds too.....the imetrex really messed with my heart....the first time I tried it. I couldn't find any migraine med that helped & my migraines are 24/7....they never go away (& it isn't bounce back or rebound). I am now on a heavy dose of narcotics (& have been for the last 4 years). I am lucky because even with the high dose, it allows me to have a normal quality of life & I am not groggy with the amount I'm on (can't explaine that just is). I know they are horribly expensive (over $1000/month), but I haven't had a migraine pain since I went on this dose.

Migraines also tear you down so you can't function & are tired all the time....just trying to escape from the pain.

I hope things will turn around for you....I also know that heat doesn't help the migraines either.....only makes them worse....just like the really cold weather does.

Take it easy in this heat....being outdoors & getting dehydrated is a bad thing also.....that can be alot of the kidney situation also is dehydration.....so be careful,
You are in my prayers,
Debbie
