Brains!

I have created a rough scale to rate my migraines on. 1-5. 5 being the worst, barfing, or not being able to move. I've only had 5s a couple times in my life. I've had plenty of 4s which is extreme nausea and pain, cured only by 800mg of ibuprophen and sleep. (i had a 5 this afternoon) Getting a 3 usually means it's going to get worse very soon, there's no turning back. 2 is usually a sign that I need to take something or I risk moving into the point of no return, some symptoms include feeling faint after walking up stairs, as well as a pounding feeling in my head. 1 is like everything else, head ache that comes and goes, mixed with neck pain.

My mom said that when she used to get them horribly, but then took some homeopathic regimen for 6 months and it stopped. However my sister who get's them terribly too, has tried hundreds of natural things and nothing has worked. I can usually predict when mine will come on, and it's around my monthly cycle or if I have bad neck or back pain, dehydration, digestion issues, or long exposure to sun. They tend to be worse, if I haven't had one in a long time.

Sucks balls.
