stuffy headed ramblings

  • I hate having a cold. My sinuses are draining and giving me an upset stomach. Feel like I'm gonna puke. Other than that, I'm ok. Actually, I'm in a surprisingly good mood.
  • I have migraines. Bad ones. The kind that, the only way you can get relief is if you stand on your head. Or drill a hole in your skull to relieve the pressure. Blinding lights that flash and swirl. They are actually halfway under control now, with 3 different meds. Last night I found my trigger. MSG. We ate at a Chinese restaurant, and I LOVE lo mien. Cried for hours, then fell asleep.
  • In the last 2 years, I have broken my left foot once (bottle of rum), and my right foot twice (jar of spaghetti sauce, kicking the coffee table).
  • I am half of an only child. I was my father's only, and my mom's first of two. By 8 years.
  • My husband is one of 8 kids, his mom is one of 11, and his dad is one of 15.
  • My aunt had to be put into therapy when I was born because she hated me. (7 yrs between us)
  • My fears are: spiders, driving over bridges, heights, fire, closed in places, and crowds.
  • I can drive a stick shift, fix cars, build stuff, fish, and hunt.

Not that anyone cared to know all of that, but I wanted to make a post today, and I couldn't remember what for.

I understand headaches as well as anyone, they can't do anything for mine it seems. I just deal with them. I am glad they have receded somewhat lately.

My final combo that seems to be working right now is propanalol daily, relpax and naproxen when I feel one coming on.
