update on past few days
 

Bizi you keep asking how i am and... do i ever answer... noooo... well... more ore less hanging in there relatively speaking. with difficulty.

been under pressure past few days. helping mom as she has been busy and upset and dad gets on her case unfairly. today was hard, she was upset and i had a migraine complicated by repeated anxiety attacks... we managed to get things done in spite of everything and mr grumpus criticizing every move. i had crying jags too.... but i am glad i could help my mom accomplish some things. she seems to feel more in control now even though the issues are not fully settled.

we are all tucking in because guess what.......

tomorrow morning (ugh!), the stupid washing machine techs have to come again because when they came friday to fix something they broke something ELSE. go figure :mad: i ended up wiht 3 hours sleep friday and my schedule thrown off since. prospects for tomorrow are not great... sigh... well good night everyone. and thank you all

Dear Waves,
Workmen inside with tools. . . . no!. . . . not allowed. Shudder. . . . I would almost rather let the place fall apart around me than put up workmen.
Much much luck on the sleep front. Sleep when you can. :hug: :hug:

past couple days
 

migraines. headaches of nondescript type. big ones.
meds don't work.

last night + today pain was so bad wanted to cut head off.
cried involuntarily - makes it worse but couldn't stop.

tonight woke up again... it's happening agin, not as bad. sigh. i didn't take any zoloft tonight in case it was aggravating the menstrual migraines.

Here's hoping the pain abates. Feel better. :heartthrob:

Hi Waves
 

I hope that the headaches go away soon. BF:hug::hug::hug:

having a great time <--- sarcasm
 

thanks Mari

... and Steve (i was in reply before i saw your post, oops!)

this morning seems better (seriously)... am sitting up... we'll see when i change positions ARGHHH - changing positions is THE WORST.

i think by about half way yesterday i'd figured out there had been at least 4 contributing factors to the headache: migraine, stomach upset (due to meds), dehydration (from meds), cervical.

so yesterday i went foodless and medless other than finally a bit of cautious dinner. skipped zoloft. at night i woke up in pain again :( had to sit up shove a sandwich down me with 800 mg ibuprofen (change from indomethacin), sit in chair while it got past esophagus. that and an icepack mostly worked - enough for me to get broken sleep ....

...between dreams of being persecuted and killed - i was turned into a black cut-out shadow somehow? and witnessed it? weird. twice, almost same dream but i don't recall other details and don't really wan tto.

now i seem to be down to 2 factors: tapering migraine, and cervical ache. i used a topical cream on my neck (has arnica incense and other stuff) and held it in slightly stretched posture for a little. the fact that i can do this, and also have less photosensitivity means the migraine component is now mild also.

i am afraid to resume the zoloft now though. i think i will wait and let my stomach heal from all these megadoses of NSAIDs, before needing to take more. :o

Dear Waves,

Yeah, I know when I have a dehydration issue . . . because I don't feel so good. 'Best to get some fluids because they will help with the headache/s

I don't see how it can hurt to keep skipping the zoloft until headache (and nausea) issues straighten out and the time of month passes. You had barely started the zoloft. You'll be off a little on the the zoloft start date --- not as important as figuring out the other things first.

I hope the migraine component keeps getting mildler
I hope your day works for you. I used to make some rice for my stomach. . . or maybe some ginger or pepper mint tea. How about some honey tea?

Hi dear lady, Today is Sunday. I usually spend it in quiet if I can. I try to set aside some time to think about all the people I have met on this site who have come to my aid. I hope you are doing OK, and that your depression is a bit better. My depression comes on and off, so I try to keep busy. I will be thinking of you today and wishing you all the best life can offer. ginnie:hug:
