I Am At My End

I have been dealing with migraines for about 31 years now. I am at the point where I just can\'t take it anymore. I joined this site because the first thing that jumped out at me was someone\'s story (which now I cant find) saying they cant take it anymore. I just started crying. Since I\'ve gotten older they have gotten progressively worse and my doctor just seems to want to push medications down my throat, they never make me feel better and I am having a hell of a time trying to function at work dealing with new meds and a migraine strike. I\'m just tired...tired of missing out of my life because I have to slow down and put my migraine to rest literally.

I don\'t understand why this had to happen to me...?!! My dad had migraines all his life as well eventually he passed from MS my mom keeps freaking me out because she says the migraines are a prewarning for an autoimmune disease. (sigh)

I have gotten to the point in the past 2 years where I have become anti-social and the "bubbly me" has been defeated by the constant monster...just needed to vent (waving white flag)
