I see alot of ppl suffer from them..

Migraines? Sinuses? Headaches?

I've had migraines for 12 years. They suck.

Just when I dehydrate.

Oh yeah, I remember us talking about that now. Just got put on a new med. yesterday for them. I hate it. Makes me feel like a walking zombie. If this doesn't work I'm getting botox injected in my head.

And, if that doesn't work. I'm fucked.

I bet you have migraines. Mine are always on one side of my head in a very specific spot. They POUND. I mean terribly. I get nauseated, the light hurts, every noise sounds amplified. How often do you get them? Sleep is good for them. Mine usually last at least 2 days if not 3.

hokie1 said:

its kinda odd..but lets say.in a 2 week period about 3 times.

weepingwall said:

If you get more than 6 or so a month that's considered excessive. If you want you could talk to your doctor and get on a medicine that should help prevent you from getting them. They may not go away completely, but they could reduce in frequency and intensity. If you are interested in more info. orgnote me.

Im getting bad ones lately. Mainly self induced.

migrains for as long as I can remember - script meds don't really help only make me feel icky in a different way

had headaches forever until I discoverd Topamax!! great drug and you lose a few pounds

I developed migraines when I was 29. Apparently it was brought on by high levels of stress. Once my situation changed they totally went away. I've never had another one since.

They're awful, just awful. I lose my vision at the beginning and go numb on the left side of my face at the end.

We are getting ready to do a study at work for weight loss...they are combining Topamax and a form of Fen Fen.
Should be interesting to see how it works.

So...this is what I need to be doing to lose weight?

Not particularly. Although if I've had a few drinks, no water and bugger all sleep, then yes - I wll have a headache.

But never had a migraine. Funnily enough, a mate of mine was describing them to me the other day and they sound HORRIBLE. I hope I never experience that.

And sinuses... only when my hayfever is acting up. Otherwise - .

I have had ppl tell me at work when I go over their medical history- " I am not sure if I have ever had a migraine". I always say...if you don't know - then you have never had one.
YOU know!

You are lucky if you have never had one.

I take 25mg in the AM and 50mg at night took my headaches away within 4-5 days, and after 2 weeks I noticed no more night snacking then I noticed not wanting dinner so after a month I went for my check up and I had lost 16 lbs. My doc said alot of her patients lose weight on it the most she seen was 35 lbs in 6 months. Your just not as hungry. so I imagine if I would jog a few laps every now and then it would really rev up the weight loss.

shanti0608 said:

Hey! Not long for you!

Hi love - yes, I am lucky that way. Sounds very similar to 'flu - people go around saying "I've got flu" when all they have is a sniffle . No, you KNOW when you've got 'flu.

And, yes, I think I am lucky that way; based on my mate's description... No thanks!

irrisistableB said:

Oh cool.

onenitealone said:

Hi there handsome!

Not long at all

shanti0608 said:

Hey.

I am so happy for you! I bet you can't wait.


Make Phil carry all your bags.

onenitealone said:

Oh he will
I must admit he is always a gentleman...
He will be back here Sept 20th then we fly home Sept 25th.
I must admit I have had some tough things to consider and a lot of purging to do but I am very excited!
I am also excited about all of the orgers I will get to meet once I am there and settled- YOU included!
I know you are not real close to where we live but we will be more than happy to come see you anywhere.
YOU are on my MUST meet list!

JustErin said:

Oh, that sucks. I've lost vision in one eye before. It's scary.

shanti0608 said:

Awwwww.... I am just so glad that you are both so happy. Good times!

And I *definitely* look forward to meeting you, Val. That'll be excellent.
