variety
Hi Group~ They say "variety is the spice of life"... Just stumbled down stairs here after 15 hours of hell. It is so strange how we can have so many different headaches with various symptoms & pain. I have killers that seem to be brought on by heat & humidity, which we have had plenty of this last 10 days. My regular meds don't touch this kind. These were the type of HAs that started me on the bad cycle last summer so that I ended up on a Leave of Absence in Sept. My 'regular" Migraines start behind the left eye, with neck pain. But these are a nagging HA for a couple hours then from the base of my skull up to the top & both sides the pain & pressure is so great I cannot move, laying down makes it worse & it really feels like my head will explode. Actually I wish it would! The thing is it still seems to run its 12-20 hour course like the Migraines but I will feel shakey, dizzy & still have sharp brain pain for quite awhile after. The after effects are worse & stay around longer than my left eye Migraines. I guess it's just the added bonus of this Brain Disorder, get a taste of all kinds of headaches imaginable so we don't get bored with the typical Migraine. : Hope somebody is having a good day! ~Lyn~
