Waaaa waaa waaaaa

My dumb ol' headaches are NOT getting better dispite medication changes. I hate complaining and I hate being a sour-puss, but that's all I seem to do. :-( My head constantly hurts. I never get a full nights sleep cause I wake up because of the pain. I'm always tired. The medicine makes me feel loopy. I hate this. WAAAA!!!!

I'm not "fun" right now. I hate having music cranked up, I avoid swimming (my favorite past-time of all) because I try to steer clear of the bright sunlight, and I don't have the energy to get off my couch. I must be the worst 27 year-old in history.

I got back to the neurologist next week. *sigh* We'll see?

Jessica,

I would like to encourage you to search for food intolerance.

Gluten is a good place to start.

Research this out, you will find that many find relief of migraine headaches through diet.

Even your urination issues sound like food intolerance.

I wish you health!

Hi - I just stumbled across your blog today - I also have a JPA and about a year after my brain surgery, I started to have really horrible, sharp shooting pain headaches.. which were diagnosed as migraines.

I was given some medication, Zomig, which works to stop them once they start but, I wanted to try and prevent them. So I tried acupuncture and it actually has worked. I rarely get them anymore, been about a year now.

Good luck - I know how debilitating they are!

Hi Jessica-

Still praying for you and a full recovery. I do feel that the complete answer is holistic. The food we eat can make a tremendous difference in the way we feel, Thyroid Disease is often overlooked too. I really like the book
"Eat Right 4 Your Type"

Sending you warm regards & prayers from Savannah, GA

jessica, reading this hurts me because it brings everything back. My name is Michael I'm 43 years old. I had brain surgery Dec. 8 2010 to remove a brain tumor. Mine ended up being brain cancer. I know those headaches all to well. I'm not getting any meds for mine. Just have to live through them. The heat kills me. The headaches have finally started letting up. I don't get them as often. GOOD LUCK, & I'll pray for you....
