Migraine

What started out to be a nagging headache for the last eight days turned into a raging migraine. I hate when it gets that bad. It is like giving birth in your head. Waves of pain and nausea. I lose all control. I become hypertensive, diaphoretic and tearful. My husband rushes me to the hospital for the magic cocktail. I lose a day everytime this happens. I am miserable before the ER then I am snowed for the rest of the day. Yesterday is the first time in a year and a half since I have had to be rushed to the ER because of my migraine got out of control. Nothing like embarrassment. Half dressed, unshowered dishelved women crying out in pain with the dry heaves. Nothing like the sting of IV being inserted in your hand because your so tense they can't find any other start. Nothing is sweeter then medicine taking you to another plane where there is no pain or nausea just sleep, deep sleep. Better living through pharmaceuticals.
