Title: Newbie living in hell Post by Jatimom on Feb 12th, 2017 at 9:41am
well hello there. Im Amber and im a 30 yo female. my first episode hit about 5 yr ago after a horrible crash my family and i endured. For all these years i chalked it up to ear infection and sinus pressure and every other thing you could think of. Spend many hours in the hospital being told "its not a headache" if its not a headache why does my head feel like its going to explode through my ear and eyeball and teeth. I never know your teeth just fill with dry ice whenever it fells like it. I have spend countless hours with my head on the floor in front of a space heater with but in air screaming in pain. Changing diapers became the most scary thing ever. Well i fortunantly got a job where my boss sent me home during a mild attack and told me i had to go to the dr to find out what was going on. So to keep my job i followed and went to er. Finally someone a very rude dr told me i have cluster headaches. WTF are those? i was so lost. now i know more than i ever wanted to know about this stuff. However the new issue. i make to much money to get government assisted medicaid and dont make enough to afford the other insurance that is nice enough to take me since i now have a prediagnosed condition. Home remedies are my favs. I smoke pot to help. eat excedrine migraine like its candy. I cant even taste bc powder anymore. I need some relief. omg. ok gotta go dance with this beast for a few minutes. have a wonderful day. hope everyone is having a decent day
