Round 5 of Botox yesterday and I’m mourning the departure of my previous nurse practitioner… She had such a light touch. I barely felt for 37 injections and she was usually done within 5 minutes.
Had two nurse practitioners yesterday and they treated my head like a pincushion.

The vertigo starter pack 🌀 Walls you know by touch, three pillows because lying flat is a gamble, ginger in everything, and the "can you drive? spinning again x" text on standby.

What's in yours? 👇

Next round of Botox next Friday and because I know the side effects will be agonising for about a month I’m trying to complete all the stuff that’s pending this week.

I have this deep velvet sleep mask that seems to blanket my brain just the right way - impossible to use during heatwaves though..waking up with sweaty eyelids is yucky.

I’ve had a run of manageable migraine week for about a month, this week the Botox wore off -it’s like living in a different body.
I tried naratriptan yesterday, it knocked me out and didn’t help with the pain when I was awake -arms feel like lead now
3 weeks until next treatment

This is a monster of a migraine -electrical storm that’s out of control- am trying to medicate my flare ups at the start of an attack, 50/50 effective so far…and triptans barely work, including Rimegepant in this -can’t face a McMigraine either
