Try to keep moving. Make time every day to get out and take a walk (or a roll). If that means that you have to bundle up first, it's OK. Use long underwear, warm socks, scarves, mittens, hats, etc. My dog kept me moving last year when I was home on a LOA. Every day we went for walks, unless it was really raining. By scheduling the time to get out of the house on a daily basis and meeting my friends to exercise, I had a means of escape. A few times my migraines have gotten the best of me, and my girlfriend has taken my dog for me because I just couldn't make it. Even now that I am back to work we continue to walk early in the morning every day. Just by getting away from the bed or the sofa and getting OUTSIDE with some fresh air and exercise I feel much better than I would otherwise.

I wish you the best, don't ever give up trying to get better. XOXOX Sandy
