So, for the past 3 days, I've had a terrible migraine. While I've been functional, it finally hit full strength on Saturday. In bed ALL day/night, expect for when I was in the bathroom getting sick. Blah...I HATE migraines. WTH?!? Why now? Why so often? I haven't had head aches like this since highschool and now I'm getting them 6 or 8 times a month. Could it be stress? I don't feel stressed. All I know is that I'm so completely over it. I'm calling the doc tomorrow. Of course I won't have a head ache tomorrow, but I need some serious meds to knock these horrible head aches out. I probably took close to 8 or 9 Excedrine Saturday alone!
My mom (and many close friends) figure its stress. But what about allergies or sinuses. I don't care what it is, I just want it to go AWAY! Not sure if the doc can or will help. I've been tracking the days that I get them and when I get sick. But I can't make any connections as to a trigger. That would be a full time job, tracking the weather, the food I eat, where the pain is, as well as everything else going on in my life. Who has time for that?
Anyways, enough venting. Sorry, I know its a drag listening to a girl complain, but does anyone else experience these? What do you think it is and do you have any advice (other than drugs) as to how to avoid/get rid of them?

Oh no, those are terrible! I hope the Dr can give you some answers.
I have those a lot and there doesn't, for me, seem to be a certain "trigger" that sends me running for a dark room and a bucket. Until I got pregnant, I had pretty good success with Imitrex injections. I have tried most of the other pills but for me, Imitrex works extremely well and quickly. I can also take additional Excedrine Migraine if needed. Now, all I can take is Tylenol. And I've been getting some of the worst migraines ever since I've been pregnant.
Praying for some relief!
