Migranes...... I hate getting these brain liquifying, skull shattering, eyeball popping headaches......
I have been up all night trying everything I know, taking every migrane drug I have (which is considerable)... all to no avail...
I don't need this in my life...... but i have to live with them...... Sometimes I get nose bleeds from them...... This is one of those times......
I was just sitting there and out it gushed...... At least I had on one of my older grubb-around-the-house shirts......
Some days...... Some days...... Some days are just not worth living......
Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

Dear Marc,
I used to get migraines. They used to put me out of action for a day or more.
I went to my doctor who tried lots of things and was baffled. Then he decided to test for food allergies. I had to spend a week at a time avoiding, each week a different kind of food. I also had to keep a diary recording everything I ate.
After about a month it was obvious! I reacted to red and green peppers. They could be guaranteed to bring on a migraine within an hour or two of eating them.
Not only did that doctor solve the problem; he also found a cure so that if I did get a migraine I just had to take a pill (Bellargal, made by Sandoz and no longer available) and in half an hour or so I would be able to go back to work.
It would be amazing if you had the same, but the process of diagnosis might find the source of the trouble even it was completely different.
By the way what was the story you were trying to write?
Love
Anthony

Since the summer, I have had to very careful as to what i eat.
Lately, I subsist on mostly rice and beans, pasta, very small amounts of meat.....
Root vegies are ok such as carrots, taters, beats, onion, raddishes, rudabegas, parsnips and turnips
Corn is ok, green beans, yellow wax beans, colliflower, brussel sprouts and cabbages are ok......
Everything however must be organically grown, which severly puts a strain on my limited food budget..... and I have to drive 90 minutes to a market in Toledo which specializes in organically grown foods.....
I try my best to keep to the limited diet I have to deal with.... but sometimes bouts of insanity and the need for something that actually tastes like real food takes hold and I slip a little......
Oh..... which story are you refering to?
Let me know.
Huggs tight,
Marc

I used to get them, too. (Well, I suppose I still could, but I haven't gotten one for years.)
I don't think I got them all that badly - I was able to conquer them with a good strong dose of ibuprofen (about 600 mg), a cool, damp, washcloth on my forehead, and a nap in a quiet, dark room.
My uncle, in contrast, gets them pretty bad; he can be out for a couple days with a migraine. He gets physically ill from them.
Have you tried those prescription drugs?
