I went to see Dr. Collins at Duke on Monday.  Today is really the first day I've felt like posting something about it

*hugs*
I wish I had something better to say.

[veazey21]

The sentiment is good enough for me.

Hey, Will: the Squirrel Nut Zippers are coming to Cat's Cradle in February. Feb. 8. Let me know if you feel like you could go, and that'll be your birthday present.

[veazey21]

The Zippers...?! I thought they'd broken up so Jim Mathus could go work on another project!

I would absolutely, positively, unquestionably love to go!

Once-in-a-lifetime amazing reunion.

Should I buy you a ticket?

[veazey21]

Definitely! Is it general admission, or are there seats? I haven't actually been to the Cradle.

At this point, I'll take anything I can get that might help. Hence, acupuncture. The guy I go to isn't covered by my insurance, but he's actually been able to help me some so I'm continuing to go see him. But...Lyrica. I can remember that. Thanks!

Hi, I saw that you commented on my sister-in-laws journal about headaches.
Did you ever go to a chiropractor and get elvaluated?
for 2 years I suffered from extreme, to the point of throwing up migranes, and turns out I have a military neck (meaning a neck thats so straight it forces nerve damage)
check it out

[veazey21]

That's actually on my list of things to investigate.
Right now I'm being treated by an acupuncturist and it's helping some. Apparently, once I finish coming off of one of the medicines I'm on, it'll help more, but if it doesn't, the chiropractor is my next stop.

I've had several friends who don't have migraines tell me that it's helped them, as well as quite a few people in migraines mentioning it. So, thanks for the additional testimonial. I like knowing first-hand accounts of people helped by something like this before I try it; I got the same about acupuncture before I dove into doing that.

[veazey21]

Yeah. You and another friend of mine are the key reasons I think so highly of chiropractors, even after my dad had a terrible experience with one.

It's just that right now, as I said, we don't quite have the funds to do three things not fully covered by insurance simultaneously (biofeedback, acupuncture, and chiropractics)

It's just now starting to catch up to you?!

I would have long ago gone completely mad. By this point I would have taken direction from Mrs. Woolf.

You are to be commended for dealing so calmly with these migraines for what...7/8 years now?

Did you ever check out that website I recommended to you?

[veazey21]

I've been having migraines for a decade. In the past six years, they've gone screwy and in the past seven months...yeah.
