Migraine Relief

 I do have to say that I'm grateful I finally went to the doctor about my migraines.

Because with the Nurtec....it's been really really nice to be able to take a single pill and have my migraine fade within an hour or so of taking it.

Especially if it's been bothering me for over a day.

The tricky thing is is just....like figuring out if the migraine is actually a migraine and if it is a migraine...is it 'bad' enough for me to actually need to take the Nurtec? 

Because, thankfully, with the Topiramate and the Vitamins I've been taking....my migraines have decreased in the pain scale.

The worst ones have only been to like a 5 or a 6.

But most of the time they've hovered around like a 1 or 2 scale.

Persistent. But bearable.

Plus with insurance limiting me on how many pills I can get a month....I'm leery to use it for any headache I get.

So I usually try my normal methods first.

But most the time I've taken the Nurtec after I've already dealt with the headache for over a day.

Like yesterday I had a headache start up in the morning because my roomie woke me up early by being noisy over my head and I couldn't fall back asleep afterwards. 

And while Advil and Tylenol seemed to help it....it didn't fully go away....

No it ended up, during work, moving from the left side to the right side and then staying......

I went to bed with it.

Woke up with it.

and figured since I woke up with it....why suffer any longer?

Ad of course within the hour I took it...it went away.

Which again leads to the debate....like why do I let myself suffer for hours on end when I know relief could be within the hour?

*exhales*

I don't know.

Maybe I'm just stubborn. 

I want to try and get rid of it other ways before resorting to the Nurtec because it DOES work and I don't want to become like...used to it....and have it stop working.....

In any case.

I'm glad it works.

Until you find these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!
