I must first apologize for my prolonged absence and silence, for those of you who have been following my journey you know I have been battling with chronic migraines we’ll at my last neurologist appointment they decided to play with medication formula. Additions here, subtractions there, introduction of elements Y and Z and on my way I go. But wait this new format will cause wicked side effects and will require many additional additions, subtractions, and phases of introductions of the new elements until my body adjusts.

So let’s talk about these wicked side effects for a moment dizzy spells from hell, never ending rolling nausea, vison that goes wonky without warning from blurry, to squiggly lines, bright spots, or pitch black. Let’s not forget the brain fog and migraine flare ups so intense I think my head will literally explode.

Earlier this week I reached my lowest point in this cycle of med adjustments. I was coming down the stairs in my house, a dizzy spells took over, the nausea rose so high and my eyesight played havoc with me I couldn’t tell where the next step was. Felt I was being pulled into a twister. I sat down reached for the walls around me to make sure I was grounded. After what seemed like an eternity I slid down my stairs on my ass and crawled over to my couch holding on to furniture to pull myself up to lie down.

This act bringing me back to infancy scared the life out of me so I called and made an emergency appointment with my doctor only to be told the symptoms are normal my body will adjust, plateau and then will upgrade to next phase in the formula. OMG this means more of this bullshit to come.

So, I might be posting more infrequently but I will try to come on my good days.

Trying to find to positive in all this is hard. If you see it let me know.
