Wild Migraine Swings

I started off feeling o.k. this morning despite having overslept. I was fine on the ride to work and after I arrived for a while.

It was really weird because I was halfway through eating breakfast when suddenly there was a stabbing pain in my head and I felt ill eating. It’s very frustrating because I always used to look forward to my shredded wheat/yogurt/fruit breakfast, but I really felt that I’d throw up if I ate another bite.

Basically since then, I’ve had mostly stabbing pain in my head (mostly in the forehead and temple areas), stretching down to my neck with a few pain-free moments where I was instead oddly suddenly very can’t-keep-my-eyes-open-sleepy. Those moments don’t last long. I’m also having hot flashes. I’m currently sitting with my shoes off at my desk and wishing for once that the air-conditioner would come on — which is a first, I think.

I’ve tried caffeine, Tylenol and Ultracet and so far no relief. I guess I’ll be taking Vicodin when I get home, if I can find it. Bleh.

Granted, it is getting close to when I need to get my next Depo shot. Perhaps that’s the problem?
