It's just enough painful to make falling asleep difficult but not to where I'm writhing in pain. It's on my mind constantly though. I'd love to get that shot they give at the Dr's office that kills migraines in a matter of minutes but of course they're not open. I hate to go to the ER for a migraine because they'll think I'm a drug seeker. Then again, if I wait too long I won't be physically able to drive my car and I'd have to call an ambulance.

I know it’s weird and it only sometimes works not always but have you ever tried eating something hot and salty and fatty like hash browns or potato wedges or something like that? Hash browns from McDonald’s are best for me. Sometimes after I’ve taken triptans and paracetamol and codeine and it hasn’t worked I have some hot salty fatty food and sometimes but not always it works. Just a suggestion if you’ve never tried it before. Hope you feel better!
