I have lived with a Migraine every day of my life since I was 18 years of age. I have seen many doctors over the years... but none ever seemed to find what the major cause is. Some had mentioned allergies... Which I do have. And others had suggested that is was from stress... and we all knew that I had plenty of that.

And yet another comment was made to one of my sisters that it is common when some members of families have epilepsy that other members may suffer with migraines. This didn't seem to surprise me too much since alot of the same things that set off epileptic seizures also seemed to set off my migraine. Such as flashing lights. I have found that rides that have special warnings for epileptic patients, I cannot go on. It gives me a horrible migraine.

Some days my headaches are so bad that I have to darken my bedroom as much as possible and turn off all lights. I can't really eat to much... as my stomach is easily upset. And then on other days... it is hardly noticeable. But on a scale of 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest... I have never gone below a 2. I had one doctor who commented that my lowest headaches would probably wipe out most people who don't suffer with migraines. At first I thought he was only kidding... but then started noticing how other people acted when describing what I thought was mild headaches.

What I would like to do in this section of my sight... Is helping others to find other people who also suffer with Migraines. I have found that very often, just knowing that there are others out there who truly do understand what you are suffering with seems to help. I know for a fact that my migraines are serious. But unlike what others have stated, these headaches are not all in my imagination. And I'm not being a baby, who has no pain tolerance.

There are others out there... Let's all join together and help and support each other!!! If you, or a close loved one, suffers with migraines.. please sign my guestbook and then leave a message for others on the message board sight. Reach out and support a new friend!
