I always thought
it would be fun to be a medical mystery, where you have some larger than life problem and no one can figure out what's wrong with you.
Sort of like my friend Ericka, except watching her try and self-diagnose her skin-thingy has been awful. I felt her legs last weekend and they were full of these little, hot, tight, itchy, red bumpies. It looked like her leg skin was actually tight in that I've-recently-had-a-face-lift way. It looked plain old ouchie.
Now, with my head, that remains untreated by the following drugs made for Migraine sufferers: Imitrex, Amerge, Relpax, Axert, Feverfew, etc., I find that I too, am somewhat of an anomaly.
It sucks. There's no mystery in losing about $600 to sit at home wanting to do homework to at least be semi-productive, but being unable too.
Yes, my doctor is confused. Yes, my head still hurts. Yes people, I know what the triggers are, and no, msg is not one of them - at least not for me.
But it's not like you can eliminate stress even when you want to. Attempting to control it is one thing, but eliminating it? I'm open to suggestion on this one, but I kind of think I need to move further from my family before I could really put a dent in any of it. Another 2 hours north or south should do it.
