Yesterday after lunch I had a bit of a headache. Not bad, but noticeable. Today after lunch I also had a headache. It was bad enough that I almost put in for sick time for the afternoon. I didn’t and I have been okay, but if it had been a little bit worse I would have gone out sick and gone to bed.

Two days in a row. Here’s hoping the trend does not continue.

May I tell you? I got a small #raise #today and today begins my one week's winter #holiday!
I"m sooo stressed out at the moment so my holiday comes at the right time.
I have smelled smoke for a week. It's a #migraine with aura but no #headache this time. It's caused by #stress. For sure

#Ethics troubles for #GOP’s #AndyOgles become even more serious.

The #Tennessee #Republican didn't need another #headache, but the #Office of #Congressional #Ethics has clearly made matters worse for the #congressman.

Happy Christmas, I guess

I’m awake early, not because of excitement; I’m low-key dreading today. No, I am awake because today is a pain day. I’m hoping the waking stiffness lifts.

In unrelated news, I went to the NASS website thinking I’d use the shop to replace my good/okay/bad day wrist bands. Shop is gone. Found some wholesalers but not sure if I want to buy/sell that many bands just to get mine.

Is that a good idea?

Anyway, Happy Christmas, I guess.

New water heater installation this morning. OMG, our dogs are loud. #headache

#Headache
Woke up today around 14h feeling the air and mouth very dry. As soon as I gained consciousness I started to feel headache. The hygrometer was measuring 36% humidity in my room. I poured more water into the humidifier.

I noticed that being sit makes the pain stronger compared to when I am standing. It also helped to stand with my face near the humidity while is was throwing a gentle breeze.

Going for a walk also helped. As soon as I arrived home it came back again.

People don't seem to do as many burnt offerings nowadays.

Seems like it ought to mean something to someone if I burn this thing and bare my soul, announce my suffering, ask for change.

We are to a large extent helpless out here under the stars.

Ugh, my head is killing me; why do I have such a fucking headache...?

"Drink water", why? This has plenty of water in it.

What do you mean "dehydrated bitch"?!

I recently discovered a free new app for tracking migraines and headaches called Achy. The description of it says that all your data stays on your phone and is not sold or traded.

Has anyone else tried it?

I’ve been tracking my symptoms in a plain note app, but this could make it easier to spot new trends.

I’ll try to remember to let you all know what I think of it after a while.

Studies of migraines' many triggers offer paths to new therapies.

From @KnowableMag: "One class of drugs has already found success in treating the painful, disorienting and common attacks. Excitement is building about a slew of additional drug targets."

Hey folks

What non-period-tracking app, tool, or method would you recommend for monitoring things like:

• Mood / feelings.
• Pain.
  • Particularly headaches and migraines.
• Warning signs of migraine.
• Logging daily meds taken.
• Motivation.
• Focus.
• MH in general.etc.

Trying to work out the best way (other than a written / typed journal) to track what we'd thought were autistic verbal shutdowns and now believe are actually migraines with auras (non-visual).

Boosts welcome

Apparently it’s atypical for moving your eyes to hurt. Or moving your head suddenly. Or find text of any size and colour combination blurry regardless of correct prescription!

I will be asking Ortho K guy about this. And / or specsavers.
