Migraine City!

Migraines are my life right now...it is sad but true. I am trying to think of good ways to combat my migraines. I have come to the conclusion that I am truely and utterly disabled by these headaches, so I must make it my goal to prevent as many as possible.

I have a new neurologist, who I completely adore. He is the first person to really sit down and explain migraines to me in detail. Additionally, he really took time to explain why I have constant migraine pain, instead of the normal occasional migraines. It is really amazing to have a great doctor to work with on this.

Additionally, I think the green smoothie thing is working a bit. I am having about an hour or so of pain free time a day. I am hoping that this time in the morning will help me propel myself to the gym.

Exercise is supposed to help migraines substantially. I also am trying to set up a sleep schedule, but it is so tempting to stay up late, and sleep in on weekends. URGH! I guess reduced pain is worth it though.
