I must be on the everyother day plan. couldnt sleep to save my life last night, was sitting on couch today (imagine that) mindin my own business when left hand and foot start goin numb like friday and hurt!!!!!!!!!! that burning that fells like to much icyhot. so I think ok, head off migraine before it takes hold, so I take my last imitrex and laydown. fighting c-pap, dog whinin at door wants in with her mommy (beagle, just what I need) so I get pissed off and bam! left eye starts, ok crap, no pain meds, no more imitrex...dog whinin, so I bury my head under pillows after I put in earplugs and put on eyemask and pray for sleep. (boss and his wife got me this aroma therapy kit with lavender eye mask, neck thing , back thing and a little pillow thing...ahhhhhh) wake up at 730 still have migraine, no drugs, no refills.] can hear a mouse fart from 50 feet (with ear plugs in, me not the mouse) I am ravenous and nauseous, find some phenergan and take that and a clonipin, hubby makes me coffee and brings me chocolate and excedrin migraine (need canon, have cap gun...thought that counts) I settle back in bed, get cereal in belly, coffee chocylate and put sunglasses on ( try it , its fun) kill all the lights and go to chat. so now all the normal people have gone to bed ( where I have been for 9ish hours) and I bees alone. nice time to catch up on my journal. what I dont understand, and I am willing to concede that friday and today are/were complex or complicated migraines, Im still as we speak, having spasms in my back along my spine?? I ve googled silly and cant find spasms associated with migraines ( for those who dont know, I have been told you dont have to have a headache for it to be considered a migraine) and I have had intermittent numbness and pain for ohhh 8 months now... an 8 month migraine? <<cornfuzzled. see gp tommorrow, not old one but gp who told me 7-29 he thought I might have MS, plan on arming myself with drugs, will ask for compazine and w/e I can get for pain and ask about alertec cause even though I dont sleep much, I have no energy, and perhaps ask for something for spasms....I sound like a druggie but dont know whatelse to do but treat the symptoms. I dont know from one day to the next what to think about dx. need to get back to sleep doc to adjust cpap, think I might need to switch to bipap, havin a hard time with continuous pressure. ah hell , just take me out back and shoot me....lol

okay first off my dear....grin.. i to use imatrex for migranes....shhhhh though or people on here will think im falling apart...rofl...
second thing... no caffine or chocolate while you are having a migraine..or nuts..are you insane???
all big triggers hon... that and smoking will make a migraine feel like a mac truck is pulling into your head then backing up and pulling in again...so next time..orange juice...and skip the chocolate..and i know that one hurts..grin.. i keep a stash of chocolate under my bed...rofl....
it is possible to get multiple symptoms because you have multiple issues dont let the dr. tell you other wise... accept that perhaps some issues belong with the migrane ...but others just dont...
i accept that some issues belong with the epilepsy..some with the glucoma...some with the high blood pressue...some with the migrianes.. some with the kids puberty...heh heh heh...some with the osteo arthritus...then chalk the rest up to the ms...grin... oh accept for the few they wish to keep blaming on the previous stroke...rofl...
but you see what i mean.... you just dont have to accept that everything is to blame on the migraines... and dont let the dr.s put all the blame there either....
keep fighting them girl...grin.. i know you have it in you...and no more caffine or chocolate when you have a headache...sheesh...smile..

Hello Rbear,
You can eat with those symptoms? - amazing; but then, with migraines, I'd believe anything! - choc. is a no no, I've heard-don't eat-am allergic: worked in choc.factory during long Vac., put me off for life! Have you stopped taking those drugs which turned out to be phenothiazines? - def. produce sides like cramps, involuntary movements - known in psych wards here as the "Stelezine shuffle"- happens in v.long term patients - procedes to rigidity: but any sort of reaction is possible - please reassure me you've ditched 'em! - Didn't realize you have had stroke! Welcome to the nut-club (I had to learn to talk again!) I just hung for about 18 months.Not happy - must write to Doug. re. these bloody adverts: there's one that flashes - just the thing to give me a seizure!- will do it now while I remember. Take care, Fond regards janeD.

All I can say right now is I'm pissed off!!!! I hate your doctors!! Why aren't they helping you? This is ridiculous. I think I need to fly out there...where the hell are you?...and have a little chat with them. I may be small, but I have a REALLY big mouth. Love, Jen

I feel your pain and was probably on here because I have no meds either and I always feel like icy hot is smeared on my head and my face stays numb! Isnt it grand? I'm eating chocolate right now along with a glass of red wine!
