My old friend the migraine

My head hurts so much this week, and the last week and this headache is wearing down my will to do just about anything. I have taken my Imitrex and they seem pretty useless right now.

Massage made it worse. Baths don't help. Heat helps the back pain some. Sleep is all I enjoy, and I have to knock myself out with nighttime medication for that to happen because my scalp is so sensitive I want to cry laying on it.

I really need this one to get worse so I can go to the ER and get a shot for it or have it get better so I can be done with it. I'm tired and have far too much to do to be sick right now. I am in this horrible cycle of beating myself up for being sick.

I have forgotten what it is like to be sick like this. I don't get headaches very often anymore and I am grateful, but when i do, they last for a weeks and suck my energy and I remember just how draining and tiring and soul crushing they are.
