Migraines! Help! / Project Runway/ New Items



I know this is a weird post, but I have some things to talk about.
I am dealing with some horrendous migraines. Lately it's been 4 or 5 a month minimum. I used to take excedrin at the start of a migraine. It used to help a little, but not any more. I was just prescribed maxalt. I had a migraine the night before last and took one of these pills. Well it didn't work. I am beside myself. Does anyone have any self help ideas? These migraines are always severe in nature. I usually throw up and end up very sick. I cry every time. Looking for help.

On the subject of Project Runway. I am thrilled that Christian Siriano won! He is an awesome designer and very deserving of this. From the beginning I thought it would be either Christian or Romi. I would love to have either one of these guys design something for me.

Take a look at these new items! The dragonfly necklace pictured has sold. I will be listing another one soon just like it. This will be a limited edition. A total of eight will be created and sold. This one was the second. The third will be listed within the next few days.
Check back often. I am always creating and listing new items. I am very open to any feedback or ideas. Thanks!
Kira :)

Hi Kira,

I take feverfew every day to lessen my migraines.
I still get them from time to time, but a lot less since I started taking this herb. It's worth a try!
I've found that putting dimmers on the lights in my house really helps, especially in the morning. I try to make sure I have enough protein during the day, do stretches (especially if you're hunched over a keyboard or artwork), cut back on caffeine & salt, do deep breathing, walk at lunch during a 9 hour work day, drink water...all those things you read about...I also try not to fall asleep on the couch in uncomfortable positions. ha ha!
I also went to a chiropractor three days a week for several months, not because of back pain but to straighten out all the bad postures I'd had forever.
My chiropractor taught me that the immune system will improve and we should never have headaches as long as we are taking care of ourselves and that our spines are "straight", or as he puts it, that we have "good posture". I could go on forever, but I'll stop here. I try not to worry so much and stay as positive and grateful as possible every day! Good luck!

Hi Lauri, If you come back to view my blog I would like to say thank you for the information. I tried to access your blog but couldn't. I will definitely try feverfew. I have a maxalt prescription, but it doesn't do much. It can be so frustrating. Thanks again!
