Migraine Day 4

Full on nausea and unrelenting pain. I have also lost my bottle of Nuedexta somehow in my house, unless I threw it away by accident. We have looked through the whole house, looking places it couldn’t possibly be, but had no luck. I am so careful about getting my medication refilled in time and I keep all my bottles in a basket together, so I am so frustrated that I have lost a bottle so important. It has always come in the manufacturers bottle, which is white and easily recognized. This time, the pharmacy put the pills in a regular brown bottle. This is why they might have been thrown away by accident. I accidentally throw things away but I always realize it. I got the refill on August 1st, and used it to refill my weekly pill minder at least once. This is the medicine that keeps me from crying nonstop!

I worked my butt off Saturday in the heat doing a garage sale that netted $304. I had to help my 74 year old mother in law and my 16 year old son, since my husband had to show property at 10:00AM. I have been paying the price EVER SINCE.

I recently saw a post on another website that shows the pressure points to relieve pain of migraines. I’ll do a post of it

Tracy,

I am concerned for you with this persistent headache. If this continues, think about going to the ER. And let your doctor(s) know. I had a migraine last year that lasted over 9 days. It might have been longer, I don't know, but I went to the ER just to make sure that it wasn't something that needed medical attention. Anyway, I felt so ashamed to go to the ER for a persistent headache. The ER doctor told me not to feel ashamed because the number 1 reason that people go to ER is for persistent headaches.

Please take care of yourself.

I keep my migraine meds in my purse so I'm never without them. When I'm home or out, they are easy to find

Hope you get some relief soon.

I’m so sorry you’ve been suffering so much. I pray you get relief quickly. I agree that a trip to urgent care or ER may be in order.

Get better.

TraceyShort, it's Fancy1959. I've had one full on migraine in my life and that was enough to understand what intense pain and misery you are going through. I wish I could do more than to just offer you support. I have thrown away or lost medicine before myself and it becomes a real tragedy when you cannot find a way to get it refilled and you seriously need. When I either lose or run out of my antidepressant I've been known to cry quite a bit myself. My family hates to be around me when that happens for understandable reasons.

Be careful not to overdo it because that just makes everything so much worse. Heat is also my enemy as it is yours too. Be careful and try to take care of yourself. You are the best advocate for your health. Listen to your body and your past experiences and make sure you protect yourself at all cost from things that are going to be extremely negative on your overall well-being. I'm sending you electronic hugs and support and I know that's not enough but that's all I have to offer. Please take care until we speak again. Fancy.

Praying for you.🙏

Living now in a nursing home, I do not have to worry about losing meds, or garage sales (which I have worked many). Here at the nh the question they always ask me is "when was yor last be". I take cenacot (sp?) drink lots of water so I can have a bm.

Not what you're looking for?
