Sunshine ...

Sunshine .... 

Well the past few days have been gorgeous! But for me, it's not been that good. Between the heat, the brightness and stuffy air it's not been fun!! Over the past couple of days I've only managed about seven hours sleep in total but trying not to sleep during the day as I don't want to over-sleep ... So many things to think about when trying to prevent migraines. Hopefully I'll have a much better sleep tonight.


I've been feeling even more off balance and not myself lately as I was told by a specialist that I could take more of my eletriptan than I have been. Before, I was only taking about 3-4 tablets a week, but lately I've been taking between 8-12 tablets along with my Sumatriptan injections. They've been dulling the pain but wow the side effects have increased! My speech has been effected by taking them and my legs have just been like jelly along with other things. I've got my usual doctor that I see every 2-3 weeks on Monday so I'm hopefully going to reduce the tablets back to where I was before as it's not making my migraines any better. 

I did manage to get out tonight for a couple of hours and had a little walk along the beach and an ice cream!
