i have been living with almost 1 migraine a week since i was 6 years old (so 41 years) and prescribed propranolol 8 years ago which finally worked reduced my migraines to 1-2 per month.
migraines are bad and if youve never had one, i dont think you would really understand how awful they are.

@emily_rugburn@lgbtqia.space I get exhaustion headaches from running because there's /something/ that I haven't figured out yet that I'm doing wrong in my post-run recovery and when it's at its worst, it means the day after running I am laid up in bed suffering both excruciating headache and nausea for the whole day. It hasn't been that bad in a while, but I know that "real migraines" can be much, much worse than what I get. It is tragic that so many people, most of all in the medical establishment, do not understand this and do not seem to want to.
