It is May 13th 2025, 14:26 Pacific Time. Back home it is +9 hours, so almost midnight and the day is over.
While that doesn't sound interesting at all, it is very significant to me. It marks my one year anniversary of being migraine-free. When realizing, it was worth shedding a tear of joy and relief and thanking the universe.
Only someone suffering from the migraine can imagine what life is like. It is restricted, limited and for me it was often in fear not knowing when it would strike next.
It's been 40 years! And what began as a once a year event, reached its peak in 2019 with 13 incidents. I am not talking headache here, taking an Aspirin and done. For me it meant instant rest, dark quiet room, bathroom nearby to vomit up to 5 times. Headache for hours, numb feet/hands, heat flashes and cold shivers. Once the attack was over. My body needed to sleep for an average of twelve hours, followed by another 12 hours tonget the circulation up and running while keeping noises and down and lights low.
I've changed my lifestyle and supplements but also think that the hormonal system has it's independent share of the deal.
Either way, I am glad I had such a long rest to ease my mind... may it be over now and for all!
