I've had a headache since last night.

When it started, it wasnt migraine proportions. I took a Midrin (migraine pill) Thought it went away, but woke up a few hours after that with head pain still there, and still not migraine proportions. It's been lurking in the background all day, just waiting for it's chance to kill me.

This afternoon our cleaning lady showed up (late) and was cleaning the house. She found a new cleaner for our kitchen floor...scented (she claimed it was almonds). I'm scent-allergic and it's a trigger for migraines.

We've told her no scented cleaners unless it's an orange scent (orange doesnt set my migraines off for some reason)

So, here I am, with an actual migraine. My forehead and the very top of my head, feels like they're going to pop off, the back of my head feels like it's squishing my brain a little, and I'm not sure, but I think this is making the mild numbness worse in my right foot that I have left from my "pseudo"-exacerbation that I had earlier this month.

I checked with the pharmacist (wish he could speak clear English) and he said that Midrin (which contains Tylenol) does NOT cause rebound headaches. I hope he's right (and please dont tell me that it does cause rebounds, I'd kind of like to see if the placebo effect will work on me if it's not true)

I just want the headache to stop. It's annoying and a lot painful, and it's making me a bit...grumpy.

I dont care what the neuro tells me. I think MS can cause migraines...maybe this is a new lesion forming or a few hundred neurons dying. It's probably just a headache tho.

I hope the Midrin I took about 10 minutes ago kicks in soon. I think I'll go listen to a Harry Potter book on my computer with the lights turned out.
