I Ouch

For 18 years I've had a severe migraine. 16.5-17 years I've had ice-pick, cluster-like headaches, and hallucinations from a med that my doc messed up, dosage-wise. I've messed up with pain killers in the past. For 14+ years I've had chronic, daily muscle spasms and severe fibromyalgia. I have subluxing tendons that made three broken bones in my left ankle impossible to heal properly. I can still do tricks with my right ankle. 馃き Ha. TMJ, check. Residual anxiety and depression, check, of course. Osteoarthritis in my neck and back, check.
I want to focus on my projects, on my family, on my goals, on sleep. On my friends who have lifted me up. I can barely focus on this tangent. All I want to say, during this level 7.5 is,


Ouch. 馃槦


What caused your greatest suffering? What brought you through to the other side?

Thanks, GeorgiaH. Most of us have gone through a lot, in one way or a hundred dozen others. I'm sharing because it makes venting easy, but I do want to know others and their struggles. Knowledge brings understanding, brings appreciation... You know? @GeorgiaHoodlum 馃檪 You know.

I've been given fortunate health physically. I do in my own remember to thank that almost every day. Only two surgeries, both hernia's, so relatively minor and they felt invasive.

Me.... my struggles, we've talked, somewhere come down to an empathetic heart, sadness, and .... me.

You're very strong Kayra.

@SW-User I know, EQF aka Poses, you process your experiences, to a certain point, emotionally, not unlike me. There is nothing wrong with being empathic! I'm glad you've been spared health-wise, at least, for the most part. That's a gift. I do hope you find something beautiful that brings you joy in this life! Now THAT would be awesome!

You're kind. Whether it's so, really, I do thank you for saying so. 馃枻 Goodnight! 馃槉

@KayraJordyn I've been looking that way all I will say this way for now. Goodnight!
Have you ever tried blood thinners/aspirin to help your migraine ?
I used to have a lot of migraines. I had medications for it which helped.
After my heart attack I was put on daily blood thinners. It helped the migraines because it affected the narrowing of blood vessels that happens during a migraine.
Good luck and feel good !

@BridgeOvertroubledWaters Yes. I've actually been on multiple meds in every medicinal category as well as every other recommended remedy, diet, supplement, surgery, exercise routine, natural remedy, and then some. Thank you for caring! 馃

Sorry you are going through so much I wish you the best. Also nothing I have suffered physically can come close to what you have.
