Had a migraine this evening. Now I can't sleep because I took a nap to get rid of it. I really wish I knew what the cause of my migraines are. I thought I had narrowed it down to one possibility, and then the idea gets thrown off by a seemingly random headache. I could handle them if they weren't so bad, but when I get one, I am gone. My symptoms are usually fuzzy vision, with a mild headache, then as the ache gets worse, I get dizzy and sometimes it gets to the point where I can barely see. Or at least that's how it seems when I remember it the next day. Unfortunately, I also tend to get sick, as in the icky sick. ::sigh:: I talked to my doctor, and he had me try all sorts of migraine pills, but they all make me sick. Yeah, they get rid of the headache, but they tend to compound the rest of the symptoms, so no relief there. The only thing that seems to help is sleeping in a dark room. I have pulled Glenn out of two gaming weekends, had to leave his sis' graduation dinner early, gotten sick in his parent's car last christmas, and in my parent's driveway this past thanksgiving. I am getting rather tired of it. I figure there has to be a reason, and if I can figure it out then maybe I can fix it. In the meantime, though, I deal, and sleep it off.

Thing is, I used to get them all the time, then I stopped getting them for a while. Now I have them again. I have a theory, but I don't know enough about headaches and the like to know whether or not it's far fetched or not. One of these days I will mention my thoughts to my doctor, when I think of it. The problem is, once my headache is gone, I usually don't think about it until the next one, so I keep forgetting to call the doc again. Ahh well....
