2003-05-03 - 1:20 p.m.� I've been meaning to update, really. It's just that migraines that last for 5 straight days really put a dent into my plans. This is the third blissful headache free day, so I feel I am safe to assume that the migraine is officially gone now. I don't know if I've really talked about my migraines much here, which seems a little odd to me seeing as I've had this diary for nearly 3 years now, and migraines have been part of my life for nearly all my life. The first migraine I remember happened when I was 6 years old. It was the day I was supposed to get my ears pierced. I begged my mother, and she finally decided that to agree to the piercing. The day rolled around, and I was terribly excited. When I started to feel sick I tried to ignore it because I really wanted to get my ears pierced now. After the piercing I finally admitted that I didn't feel well. When I was young, I never used to think of the migraines as headaches, which meant that for a long time we didn't identify them as migraines. Because I always threw up when I had a headache (pain brings nausea), I always told my parents and teachers that I had a sore stomach, even though my stomach didn't really hurt. At my worst, which I think was around puberty, I used to get the headaches on a near weekly basis. When I realized my triggers, I was able to get them down to once every couple of months. That's still about where I am, which isn't too bad, I guess. When I get a migraine, it's usually completely debilitating, but at least it doesn't happen very often. I am just really hoping that the multi-day migraine isn't going to be a trend for me. Because a 5 day migraine really sucks.
