Memorial Day Migraine
Added 2024-05-29 02:00:10 +0000 UTCSo, after I posted yesterday's chapter in the morning, I went about my day. Then, I got a migraine. That isn't unusual enough to warrant a post by itself. What was unusual was that it came out of nowhere. I usually have a feel for when they're coming or get a little warning. Not this time. And it was hand's down the worst migraine I've had in years. I'm talking turn off all the lights, cover my head with a pillow, force myself to drink water so I have some in my stomach for the next time I throw up, which i was doing every hour or so, medication won't touch it, enjoy 16 hours of hell, kind of migraine. It's why the announcement of the audiobook came so late in the day today. I spent most of today sleeping off that particularly miserable experience.
I will make a couple chapters available for the lower tiers in the next hour or so. And I will try to get a chapter posted today, but try is the operative word there. Even after managing to get some sleep, I still feel pretty foggy. So, if you were wondering what's up. That's what's up.

As a chronic migraine sufferer, Iām sorry you too get them. Iām thankful my next Botox appt is tomorrow. And that Fioricet exists.

2024-05-29 06:26:43 +0000 UTCI hope you recover well. As for chapters, I think your output is stellar and you should take the time to recover fully today. I appreciate your open communication and dedication to providing us all with an excellent product.

2024-05-29 03:25:53 +0000 UTCAs a fellow migraine sufferer, I get it. The ones where you get nauseous (sometimes I'll get halos or spots in my vision) are the absolute worst. Occasionally I've found taking a really hot shower and blasting the water on the back of my neck can relieve it a bit, but it depends on the severity and location (sometimes they seem to start in my neck, other times in my temple). I also have migraine meds but I've found if you can't take them *before* the migraine really starts they just don't do anything. All you can do is stay in the dark and tell the world to -bleep- off. Hope you get to feeling better soon!
