so i am getting the day rolling here at work. i CAN get what i need to taken care of - i just need to tread lightly. i feel delicate and my head pounding already isn't helping. there is something about the lack of light, computer monitor light, and flourescent buzz that keeps wonking out my vision. but i will get through it.. if i can be careful enough i will get through it without another day of blinding pain. no aspirin for 24 hours after the migraine drugs so... no aspirin until 3pm. whoee i am counting those minutes. today i am the tortoise. slow and steady. i figured it out so i can get it all done. i jsut need to go slow and focus. this is me today. slow and focused.

aside from stress. any other suggestions / home remedies /. etc for beating back the headaches?

(total tangent, both PRINCE and MARY J BLIGE performed at the american idol finale last night. i wanna have both of their babies...omigod)

I've had people tell me to avoid caffiene (including chocolate) during and immediately after a migraine. That's never seemed to help for me, but I know it has for others.

Frequent eye resting *has* helped me though. If you don't feel as if you can get up and walk around, then just sitting with your eyes closed may help.

Also, I sometimes realize that I clench my jaw when my head really hurts, which only makes it worse, so maybe try to pay attention and see if you're doing that.

*hugs*
