Well, yesterday was the first time in about 2 months that I've had a migraine - And let me tell you this was a bad one.
My day began just as any other. I woke up at around 6:20 AM (EST; I'm still used to PST sadly) and I got up and prepared to go to the beach. My grandma is a weird one, and decided it would be smart to get there at 10 AM. Well, we up and went to the beach and I slept for the entire car ride. (Stayed up somewhat late playing GeypleStory) We get to our room, and then as I put my swimsuit on it hits me.
The visual auras are setting in. I know at this point the rest of my day is bloody ruined, so I just decided to sweat it out. I tell my grandma when we get there, and she tells me to take a nap and recommend that I eat something, so she goes and gets me some french fries.
BAD DECISION.
I ate some cheese fries, and well, that cheese DEFINITELY had something growing in it, or something funky going on. Not only did I have a HORRIFIC migraine, but I was throwing up for the next 6 hours straight. I didn't even have any fries left in me and I just kept spitting up.
That's not the worst of it though - I could handle the throwing up, that didn't phase me at all, but what really annoyed me was the migraine systems. I don't know if you know about hemiplegic migraines, but I have every single sympton supposedly that is supposed to be had from a hemiplegic migraine, so that's my self diagnosis.
For some people, the vision auras occur at the beginning before any pain, but that's not the issue for me. I get everything like a train wreck. Everything hits. My right hand (and in this case my hand) goes numb, the vision auras make my life miserable, my head hurts (idc about that though - the least of my problems), and life just freaking sucks.
Thanks for reading!
tl;dr I got a migraine it bloody sucked.
