So I have headaches. Lots of them. And their quite painful. Well, with the start of school, interning and crazy amounts of homework, my headaches have been INSANE.
I've been doing a research study with HOPE (a migraine organization) through the university since May. Because of this, I have had to track my daily pain levels. It has been super informative to see how often and how severe my migraines really are. Rarely do I experience days with pain below a 6/10. And normally it is between a 6 and 8, yet there are quite a few 9's as well.
I have now been dealing with headaches for almost 6 years, and I have yet to find my magical solution. I keep seeing doctors, keep talking about options, and keep trying everything they throw out there!
The biggest stress in this for me is the money/financial side. In Michigan, if anyone is involved in a car accident (regardless of fault) your personal car insurance is responsible for your care for life (though currently they are trying to put a cap in place, but that won't affect me). AAA has been a pain in the ass for years now. They have dragged their feet over and over again, and have not communicated with us in an effective manner. I am trying to stay positive, and just keep reminding myself that they are liable, and that I don't have any assets anyway...so nothing can be taken from me!
