they're not fun when they make you fall over, slur your speech, make you cold, stop you from concentrating and give you blurry vision.

 

I don't recommend getting a migraine. Especially at work.

 

That is all.

 

Sounds like my night out last night.

They're usually brought on by an allergy to something i think?

Hmm don't think so. It may have been caused by the bright lighting where I work seeing as it gave me a slight headache yesteday.

 

'twas not good fun getting out of bed this morning though and falling over straight away due to lightheadedness. F**k knows why I'm at work :confused:

Go home and spend the day in bed or on the sofa?

A female friend of mine was constantly getting migranes and was referred to some sort of specialist who carried out a number of tests and found that she was getting the migranes after eating or drinking certain items including chocolate:smt017

Eating bananas gives me migraines, and they totally ruin me. Knock me out for 2 days, cannot feel parts the left side of my body such as hand, mouth, tongue, throat etc. Also lose vision and get flashing lights

 

 

Sounds like a head-ache you got Scotteh

 

You must look really strange.

Men: "Yes I've got a headache, but I'll drink plenty pf water to rehydrate and maybe a couple of paracetamol if it gets really bad; it's no big deal"

 

Women: "Ooh, I can feel a migraine coming on; I get these this little pain and some funny lights, then I feel sick sometimes; I can't stand the pain and will have to go home from work and lay down etc."

 

It's the same headache. Migraines are just headaches for women.

 

You Nancy.

Wrong. You obviously are not a migraine sufferer. Mongrel

When you cant feel your left hand' date=' do you use it to knock one off, closing your eyes, pretending it is someone else?[/quote']

I heard that you lay on your knob 'til it goes to sleep then knock one off, closing your eyes, pretending it is someone else.

I was thinking it sounds like he's had a stroke myself...

 

That’s because a migraine is a mild form of a stroke, does that make you feel better?

 

I get the flashing lights quite a lot but only 1 in 10 of my migraines are bad (the kind where the smell of water can have you vomiting like a loon).

 

But (not wanting to top-trump your suffering) I also get cluster headaches which are really really nasty, they used to refer to them as suicide headaches because regular sufferers had to be put on suicide watch in hospital. I've never had a nail slowly driven through my right eyeball but I bet it feels just like a cluster headache. And as the name suggests they often come in cycles of one or two a day for x number of weeks/months. Plus they can't be treated by painkillers. AND my attacks were caused by (gulp) alcohol so I've not touched a drop of wine or beer for months now. But compared to the suffering a cycle of cluster headaches, going dry is easy peasy.
