Once I was diagnosed by my doctor with migraines, there were many things I did to improve my health. I eat less food that contains caffeine. I eat more fruits and vegetables. I avoid drinks that contain caffeine as well. I exercise at least 3 days a week. I go for walks in the park and also exercise on my elliptical machine at home.

My earliest memory of my migraines, although I’m certain they’ve been older, was during the week of a field trip in first grade. I remember it so well because it was supposed to be a trip to see my mom perform in a community theater production. I was out the entire week with a headache and vomiting.

When I was younger around 12-13 years old, the headache and leg & arm muscles pain was normal. I thought I’m not the only kid in high school who had headaches and pain like this, I didn’t know why this is happening to me, I was in the class and I had the worst headache in my entire life. I went to the nurse, she gave me Tylenol, I took a nap and it worked.

I have had over 5,000 shots and IVs and a headache every day for almost 21 years but I always keep hope that a miracle will happen!

I have brain aneurysms and chronic migraines with vertigo on a daily basis. I suffer from not being able to go outside, missing events, and per my family, I get grouchy.

After years of suffering from painful, sometimes lingering, migraine headaches, I found several medications that actually work to lessen the brutality of the episodes. However, being a mom of four, I had to find an available resource to utilize my own migraine treatment at that point.
