Daily Migraines - How do we function?

Medications, PT, sound baths, massages, the ice gel cap helmet thing, occasional fevers. The vice grips tightening on the temples. The thunder claps through the top of the skull. The bludgeoned feeling at the back of the head. The nausea - oh god the nausea. And the advice is to eat well and go for a walk and don’t overdo do it on the ibuprofen, which might as well be tic tacs at this point!

If any of this rings a bell or resonates, please join me in this conversation on how to survive and function with these symptoms and headaches as part of our lives. Granted, I’ve had two sinus surgeries for sphenoid sinusitis in the last year and an infection for meningitis, but the migraines remain and continue to develop the cruelest symptoms.

I need help understanding this and knowing I’m not alone. All I’ve got in my arsenal is rizatriptan and Tylenol #4 oh and topamax.

How about you?
