another migraine sufferer


by: Shawna on Fri, May 18 2007

My name is Shawna and i’ve been suffering for years. My friends have no idea what i go through and it pisses me off! They try to tell me”its just a bad headache! Big deal!” They just dont understand.

I went to the doctors and even they didnt understand. They told me to just take aleve when i feel a migraine coming on.

When i have a migraine i lock myself in my dark room and try to sleep it off. I end up vomiting and getting really sick. I cant even keep my head up or move because when i move it makes the pain worse. I’ve missed so many days of school because of them.

Before i get a migraine i get really bright lights that really effects my vision. Sometimes i cant see at all and thats how i know that im going to get a migraine

I really need to do something. Im only 18 years old. I dont want to suffer from them anymore. I’ve been trying to find a solution but its not working. I think that a migraine is worse then having a fever. Its horrible and i just wish that more people would understand!
