KAPLOW!


This cartoon is pretty gross.  But then again, what about migraines is pleasant- NOTHING!  And how many times have I said during a migraine I feel like my head will explode? Every. Single. Time.  I completely relate.

You don't really want to know, do you?!


Eye pain a lot today and yesterday.  What did I tell you- I say I am feeling OK and I start to slide back down hill.  It blows.  I guess it was the calm before the storm.  Bummer.  Funny picture though!  Makes me smile every time I see it because it is so, so, so true!!  Anyone else relate?

Ha! I couldn't have said it better myself....


I seriously think I need to get this shirt.  Like now.  My memory loss is worse and worse and I think the most annoying is how I "loose words" mid sentence.  But I guess it is still a better trade off then CDH at a 7+ 24/7, huh?

Last night the strangest thing happened to me.  I got my nightly "come-down" from the day plus I need to take my next pill headache.  But along with it I got this pain that radiated from the very top of my neck that went all the way down to the bottom of my shoulder blades.  I honest-to-goodness felt like someone beat me up there.  I felt sore and bruised, not only on the inside but outside too.  And as stupid as I felt asking him, I had to have my husband look at my back to see if it was actually bruised up, even though I knew it couldn't be.  Also my nerves all over my body were hyper sensitive.  The lightest touch on my face felt like sunburn.  But I also felt it in my arms too.  So, so strange. Very much like trigeminal neuralgia, but not.  I laid down with a heating pad and took an Imetrex, my nightly meds and then some and just crashed out.  But surprisingly by morning I was fine.  What is happening to me?!!

Good news is that I start Physical Therapy on Thursday.  I am going to a new therapy center that is rated super high, everyone raves about it.  I was there for my MRI and was blown away just by walking in the door.  So that's cool.  I love having twice weekly massages.  Hopefully it will help with this neck pain I have been having.  Next up will be another CT of my sinuses.  Dr. D thinks they are beginning to fill up again.  My pain is around my eyes again and across my forehead and cheeks which is where they were really heavy when I had my sinus issues last time.  It was weird but both she and my pharmacist said I look pouffy and had dark blue circles under my eyes, both indicators of sinus trouble. We shall see I guess!

The REAL Pain Assessment Scale

If you've ever been to the doctor you've seen this cute, yet oh so demeaning Pain Assessment Scale.


I think this one is much more accurate.  What do you think? lol


**Here is the blog post that goes along with  the new and improved pain chart.  It was just shown to me and I LOVE it!  She explains what is going on in each face, and it is so funny.  Be sure you give it a read!  Click {here}
