I have 15-20 headaches a month. Most of my migraines are stimulated by the environment. I am 43 years old and have lived with migraines since I was a child. If I clean my house, I am guaranteed a migraine for the day. Passing by someone who is wearing, perfume or cologne, guarantees a headache. Weather changes guarantee a headache. I am so tired of having these migraines. I work full time and the older I get the harder it is to work. I’ve been known to lay on my floor under my desk at work, or go to the clinic at work to just lie down. I have to be in a quiet dark room, take my meds, and then hope I will feel better after several hours. I’ve been to neurologist, headache specialist and to other doctors and I have lost hope in trying to find a cure. I’ve resorted to the fact that I just have to take the meds and live with it.
