foi_nefasteGah. Migraine again.
I haven't had one in a while, which I'm terribly pleased about, but I'd forgotten how much they hurt. And the meds aren't kicking in, and I've taken the max dosage already.
Right now, I'm only functional in the sense that I'm horizontal in the most scent-less room in the house, and I've lowered the light from the computer monitor to bearable levels. If I can manage to not move my head, I can tolerate the pain. Moving my head makes me nauseous, though, so I'll just stay perfectly still, and hope the meds eventually kick in (they should have by now, but for some reason, they're not).
People who don't get these are so very lucky.
EDIT: The meds kicked in. I'm feeling slightly woozy, but lack of pain is one of the most beautiful sensations you can possibly imagine. I don't say this often, but thank you, Pharma.
