Migraines Since I Was 4yrs Old
My first migraine was at a party with my parents. It came on quickly by the smell of food. I was instantly sick throwing up and my head hurt so bad alibi could do was cry. My parents took me I. One of the bed rooms with a wash rag a bucket and gave me some baby aspirin. I remember having it for several days and it worried my parents.
Fast forward 51 years and I still have these same types of migraines that are triggered by smells, barometric pressure changes, stress, and cluster headaches. They effect me on a daily basis where I cannot function, think clearly, depression and anxiety . One of these days my body wont reject so many medications.
