Saturday 4th June

Hmmm bit grim this last couple of days.

My pains been really bad for a few weeks so I've been having some acupuncture to try and manage things a bit better..sometimes it can help.

Yesterday I felt a bit better than I had for quite a while (YEAH!!!)..then I had a bit of cheese and experienced a sudden down turn in my remission (BOOOOOooo!!!).

I know all about food triggers but they have never been an issue for me..well except for alcohol (that's so unfair). SO imagine my surprise when I found myself with a return of the pain up to maximum warp speed and me talking to God on the big white telephone in the bathroom for about 3 hours. Yuck..

I am now pathologically scared of cheese..tried chocolate tonight. purely as a scientific exercise , and no major change in pain levels with that (phew) .

I did wonder whether I noticed the trigger this time because I was feeling better than normal and experiencing a rare low level of pain? However as Brian mentioned I'm actually rarely pukey..I usually just feel nauseated..ah TMI apologies.

Maybe I need to look at this whole food thing again..sigh...

Ah well hoping for an easier night tonight.

Beam me up Scottie

Very sorry to hear this. Why is nothing straightforward, eh? Sometimes I think food and our migraines in general just like to keep us guessing.

I am pathologically scared of cheese too - haven't eaten it for half of my life now!!

Hope tomorrow is a better one. x

I've been a bit grim lately too. But actually went out today to the zoo for a couple of hours (we have season tickets, so can just pop in for a bit - suits me better than a big day out, as you can imagine). I'm so happy to have got out and about, as I was starting to feel like I was under house arrest!

Yeah despite feeling like death warmed up you still get stir crazy and just wish you didn't have to act like a vampire when the sun does decided to show it's face.

Glad you managed a trip out..I think it does help sometimes to j
'just do something'

Hope tomorrow is a better day.
