Migraine 1, New Year's Eve 0

[morwen_peredhil]

For the first time in ten years (now that H has finally switched his business from a calendar year to a fiscal year), we were going to go out on New Year's Eve. Yet here we are at home, watching a not particularly good movie starring the very pretty Michael Fassbender as a Roman legionary, rather than out at our friends' party, because I woke up at

Not even Michael Fassbender's pretty can get me to watch that movie. The trailers were all "Look, the poor Roman's attempted genocide, and the mean Celts fought back!" (Never mind thatthe real Romans...err...would have considered genocide a waste?) But he was very pretty in the first half of Devil's Whore. And Angel. I'm told he's pretty in Hex, too.

Excedrin Migraine is my friend every few weeks, sadly.

I've just been looking up at the TV occasionally when MF is onscreen rather than paying any attention to the plot. Sounds like that's for the best.

I jinxed myself a couple of days ago by buying a new bottle of Excedrin Migraine because I had a coupon that made it free.

Thanks! I'm on the mend now.

Hope you feel better by the morning. I used to get monthly migraines and then I went through menopause and they stopped. I was so happy about this particular side effect.

Thanks. I do feel human again this morning.

I didn't start getting migraines until I was thirty, although my mother had them when she was a teenager. Menopause is probably about ten years away for me (going by when it happened to my mother), and I'm looking forward to it for a number of reasons.

Same here I didn't start getting migraines till my late twenties and they became more consistent as I got into my thirties. I went through early menopause. My doctor thought there was something wrong because I was around forty when it started happening. I had to explain to her that my Mom went through early menopause. Every time I didn't have a period I didn't get a headache. Yay! I get sinus headaches and occasionally a migraine, but they are nothing like they were.

Hopefully your migraines will go away too.

Happy New Year! I'm sorry about the migraine. My mother occasionally suffers from them (though much less often in the past few years) and it's awful. I hope it at least got better for your New Year's dinner.

Thanks, and Happy New Year to you, too.
