I'm struggling right now. I've had a migraine for the last ten days, and it's just wearing me out. It's isn't a severe migraine; I can do most things, but the pain is constant, the exhaustion is terrible, and I feel continuously ill. I've missed four days of work, and I have a huge project due on the 15th. I'm starting to get panicky and depressed, and of course all I want to eat is sugar and pizza. So far I've given in to the sugar but not the pizza. I can gain four pounds overnight from pizza.
My doctor wants me to come in for daily IVs until we can break this migraine, but until he gets my insurance to approve it, there's nothing I can do but wait. I'm trying to stay strong, but somehow I assumed that eating better and losing weight would help my headaches, not make them worse.
