Five minutes of sunlight without sunglasses on and my head is in fight or flight. At least that what it feels like. #Migraine #ChronicMigraine #ChronicPain

Five minutes of sunlight without sunglasses on and my brain is fighting me. #Migraine #ChronicMigraine #ChronicPain

So I know my body, and I know how it reacts to certain things. I've been in pain for the last 3-4 days due to my lovely lifetime companion #ChronicMigraine and because when I have an attack like this, I barely rest when I sleep I slept for 10 hours last night because my body needed it, and this means the worst of the migraine is passed. I may still have a bit of a migraine hangover today and a little brain fuzz, but I am done it's passed.
Felt weird all day yesterday. Checked the weather for today: no rain. Migraine wiped me out during the evening. Woke up to find the pain had increased × 5. Checked the weather app: no rain scheduled. Staggered around the house super early, fed cat, took drugs (migraine variety), fixed coffee, arrived at desk. It started raining.
Migraine superpower. ⛈️

@marcesher @skamille @sarah_edo Behold, the Everest of unreads. Things that prevent me from reading them:
- #ChronicMigraine
- #ChronicFatigue
- #ChronicIllness in general
- #Cat on lap (when no book is near)
The text is a bit too small in some of them, so I should switch to my iPad or Kindle for reading. Audiobooks are usually better for me these days but I’ll always support the author by buying the hard copy first.

Welcome to Aotearoa! We came here from upstate New York twenty years ago.

Not sure I have the energy at the moment, but here goes....
I am an American #Muslim immigrant to #Aotearoa. Stay-at-home-mom to a teen and a tween. I'm a mega #history nerd, and only listen to history #podcasts (no true crime for me, please).
I suffer from #ChronicFatigue, #Fibromyalgia, #ChronicMigraine, #Dysautonomia. Social media IS my social life, due to being too damn tired to go outside most days.
I believe in human rights for all, not just a choice few.

Bad migraine day but this guy was on call. He doesn't usually use this bed because it's in his litter box room at the moment, but it gives him a good view of my bed so he waits there until he decides I need to pet him for my health.

I had 114 #migraine attacks in 2022
That feels like a miracle from my perspective. For context I had 192 attacks in 2020. The difference is monthly engineered therapeutic antibody injections.

Just reminded myself that Jessica Kellgren-Fozard exists on youtube, so having a watch of some of her videos that I've missed.
Here's a useful one for me and anybody else with a #ChronicIllness (especially ones that drain your energy)
