Here I am again beating a dead horse. I just need to vent about this ordeal.

Yesterday I had a so-so day. I self medicated with a muscle relaxant and my pain meds to try and keep the migraines away, and rested.

Spoke to the Dr. she said to start the Topamax, so I did last night. She said if will take some time though, I start off at only 25 mg for a week, then it goes up. She also said that she hasn't had anyone complain of eye pain from the med.

I don't have much of an appetite, due to the headaches, yet I do eat something.

I think my BP is also effecting my migraines, like an interference, if that makes any sense at all. I am just not myself.

I had a small attack last night, took my BP meds, the Topamax and a pain killer, and used the deep breathing, slow exhaling to calm the anxiety, it helps, because I get so wired with these headaches. Trying to fall a sleep is so hard with these migraines.

Made a dentist appointment for Thursday morning. Going to make an Eye Dr. appointment today too. Covering all the bases, plus I need to do this, I am way past due on both.

Woke up this morning with a headache, got right up, took my pain med, had an iced coffee, used the ice pack and it subsided quickly.

So onward I go.............If none of this works, then I am going to make an appointment with a neurologist. Then I wonder if there is a problem with the 2 level fusion in my neck causing this, I doubt, I would have neck pain. At this point who knows.

Have a good day.

Hugs to all, Nikko
