Can you hire someone or get a friend to come over to help with house work? Alternatively, you could let the house work go. We can relax our cleaning standards while we need to focus on health and children.

Yes, cleaning standards have been relaxed. I do have some help. My son's both have PCA hours, and the one girl I have for a PCA has been able to come over a few times this week. I just don't have very many hours. My parents came yesterday and that helped, and another friend has brought supper twice (and paper plates). I'm probably only doing one load of dishes per day vs two like usual, so that's good.
I will try the vicodin if need be. You are right about the abilify. Also, dr says I can only take the maxalt (migraine med) 4-5 x per week, so I don't want to use that up.
I still feel pressure around my eyes today, but not as badly as yesterday.
Thanks.
