No Choice
Suffering chronic migraine is unbearable. Too many times I planned my death. It brought comfort to know I could say goodbye and not have to drug myself to sleep for 3 days to avoid the horrific pain. By the grace of God, I managed to overuse my migraine meds to get through my workdays. Days off were no joke, in bed dying mentally and physically.
Don't give up
I was my own advocate after doctor gave up. I would and did try everything. Even drank tea with bugs as a pain med. nothing worked. I signed up by some miracle for a drug trial for Aimovig. I am a Ginny pig who no longer gets daily migraines. I have a dog now as well. Moral of the story is try not to give up. Like these beautiful glasses, there are more options coming to help us live.
