Living with Migraines

I suffered through two migraines during our vacation.  One was worse than the other, but I managed to get through them both.  My neck has been hurting almost daily for at least a month or two now, so I’m wondering if I tweaked it or strained a muscle or something.  A friend of mine’s husband is a physical therapist, so maybe I’ll give him a call and see what he thinks.  Maybe it’s just knotted up muscles that need to release once and for all.

I refilled both of my prescriptions yesterday.  It’s always good to know I have what I need, should I need it.

I had a tension-migraine for days last week, but it is finally letting go.  I’m still a bit sore in my neck, but seeing as we’re heading off on a vacation today, I am thinking that I’ll have a chance to really let go and relax.  I’ve missed a lot of ballet lately due to other commitments, and Friday I had to miss it because of my head unfortunately.  Once I’m back from our trip I’m hoping for 3-4 classes a week, plus stretching at home, for at least four weeks.  We’ll see how that turns out.

I had green tea with dinner last night and I think it messed with my sleep cycle.  I was wide awake around 1:30 a.m., tossing and turning.  Need to remember not to drink that in the future!
