Migraines a little better again!

I've now gone 8 days, 8 days and 10 days between my last three migraines. That's a BIG improvement over 2 a week. It makes all the difference. I have the energy to do a few things other than lie in bed in a dark room whimpering in pain!

So I've been reading and playing the piano and going out to dinner, theater and movies and just generally having a great time -- as long as I don't overdo it!

And my tummy's still okay too although I've been cheating a little and my tummy's definitely been yelling at me, but no D so my streak continues!

Wishing you all a pain-free day!

Let's here it for pain free days! Haven't actually experienced one myself. But the days the pain is weaker, I am such a different, happier person!

Love, your Bethie

Glad to hear you are getting those migraines under control. How you otherwise with the Fibro?

Keep up the good work,

So nice to see your smiling face here again! I had a fibro question for you, Laura Sue-- Have you ever received botox injections for your migraines, or for back pain? I noticed there are clinics in London and Liverpool which do these, but I'm not sure how prevalent the practice is in the states. I recall seeing that botox hadn't been approved by the FDA for fibro, but that was almost a year ago and I wonder if that has changed?

Have a great day, LS! I'm thinking about you and sending good thoughts your way!

Thanks for your good wishes everybody!

Nelly, I haven't gotten botox injections but a number of people on my migraine forum have. It works really well for some but others results are not as good. Which is typical for migraine treatments!

Mark Pellegrino does Botox injections for Fibro but says it's a last resort.
