  • Well...I guess I do have a lot of cute sundresses. That, at least, is going pretty well for me ;)
    What I want: sundresses, rock music, a boyfriend. What I have: H, T, migraines, a panic attack that just needs to get over an done with

    I know how you feel it so limiting. I just hope FX-322 comes out asap.

    If I could, I would blast my rock music again. Probably didn't help my T in the first place. What bands you like?
    In pain but I'm at a dinner party right now. Putting on a smile and pulling through. Also, kinda boring- can't hear anything with earmuffs
    Woke up in pain this morning, it's going to be one of those days. Not depressed as hell, but ain't no ray of sunshine either. Holding up
    Neurologist finally called me! ENT has been treating me for migraines up to this point because of CoVid crap. Appointment on wed the 13th!!!
    Semi trucks- just no. I was doing so good this morning until that one caught me off guard. Still feeling it.
    nails on a chalkboard a new definition. Problem is, I can't cross the other side of the creek to find the source - private property (2/2)
    My quiet place has been infested by a new noise. There's a loud, high pitched squeaking - like an old gate needing oil. It gives... (1/2)
    and just turned around and got in the truck. It was my new ear muffs, highest NRR on the market! Like christmas came today XD (2/2)
    Y'all when the amazon delivery guy pulled up I got so excited I was skipping to meet him. Scared him so bad he dropped the packaged... (1/2)
    Steph1710
    Haha! What earmuffs did you buy?
    Tavia R
    3M PELTOR X5A Over-the-Head Ear Muffs, Noise Protection, NRR 31 dB from amazon. They're on sale right now for half off
    Also, I look like Princes Leia wearing them because they stick so far off the sides of my head, but ooooh I love them.
    Doc says cardio's gonna trigger huge migraines to begin with, but in the long run will prevent them. Day 2: Scared will be like yesterday
    Steph1710
    @Tavia R do they know why you have migraines? Have the checked for raised pressure in your head? Probably worth it. X
    Tavia R
    I haven't heard about raised pressure? If anything, my doctors keep getting after me to eat more salt and guzzle water, I have low blood pressure and get dizzy because of it. Thanks for the input though :D
    Steph1710
    @Tavia R check it out. Honestly. I didn't even know it was a thing. They done a ctv scan where they put dye in your body and check for blockages. Anyway it showed raised pressure in my head. Have you had a scan yet? X
    My own body giving me jump scares XD People pay good money to walk through haunted houses, and here I am getting scared to death for free.
    aot
    I feel that. My VS was like that some days ago. Woke up and had a bunch of crazy shapes everywhere. Back to baseline now, but it sure was scary.
    Oh my hell, thought I was gonna die! My T suddenly stopped the high whine and dropped to a low tone. Why's it gotta scare me like that!?
    I get to inform them I'm actually getting worse, but my coping mechanisms and ability to 'get over it' are improving by the day too :D (3/3)
    ears or head and just calmly proceed with what I was doing. Everytime I have follow ups with doctors they comment I'm looking better..(2/3)
    Growing up I was such a cry baby, I had the lowest pain tolerance ever. Now, I'll be having a sudden stabbing pain somewhere in my...(1/3)

    Doc is talking about trying botox shots to treat my migraines. Let's hope it doesn't come to that, we have a few more things to try first
    Steph1710
    I'm having a lumbar puncture for my migraines. Have you had an CTv scan? I had one and it showed I have raised ICP. Only found out a couple of months and I've suffered with migraines for years.
    Tavia R
    I haven't heard anything like that, I will definitely make a note to bring all those up to my doctor - anything to avoid botox. Thank you! Good luck with your own hell, punch satan for me
    Steph1710
    Hahaha! I didn't even see your last comment! "punch Satan for me".... dying! I will, don't you worry ;)
    so much. Just the healthy coping mechanisms. I think everyone out there, struggling with T/H or not should see a therapist. Saves me (4/4)
    where I'll do my therapy. Keeps the anxiety under control. I don't know how I'd be managing this without a therapist, she teaches me...(3/4)
    serving as my pink noise therapy. I'm finding it's really helping having such a positive connection with that place to chose it as... (2/4)
    The creek that runs through our back yard has always been my favorite place - I live in a swim suit in the summer. And now, it's... (1/4)
    I struggle coping with the fact that people have two sides. I guess I'm too young and naive to understand that people can love and hurt you.
    She screamed. My sister. She screamed. Why would she do that? Why would anyone on this earth that loves me do something like that to me?
    Steph1710
    @aot the door slamming in my house is the worst! And cupboards! I get so annoyed and remind them constantly but it just doesn't sink in. I'm sure if they heard/felt what we did, then they'd be a bit more considerate.
    aot
    My mother does, @Steph1710. She has Menire's, which makes it even more frustrating.
    Tavia R
    @aot I understand the feeling, my mother needs hearing aids but not badly enough that she's ever bothered enough to go get them herself. I keep trying to get her to get them, maybe then she'd be able to hear just how loud she always is.
    @Orions Pain Yes they can, it's confusing when they love you right?
    my little brother - love him to death - my family is the most important thing in the world. But I also have to protect myself from them(2/2)
    Explaining H to a 6 year old is really hard. He really is trying, but he's just too young to understand. I want a relationship with... (1/2)
    surprised (it's supposed to be a very painful piercing) I'm like listen lady I'm in here for migraines causing H I'll take this anyday (2/2)
    So I got both my daiths pierced, the lady was so surprised I didn't even flinch. She was like, "wow, you're tough" she was so...(1/2)
    Just found out they nominated me as a speaker at high school graduation! I'm in the top 20 in my class with gold and blue cords.
    HYPERACUSIS IS RUINING MY LIFE AND THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT! All I can do is tell a bunch of strangers that hurt as bad as I do
    RishRamsey
    I am really sorry to hear this. I am in the same boat, like you, and not much older than you. H is literally ruining my life and I can't help but think how much longer I have. I am fighting every day to probably get a few more years under my belt before I call it quits.
    Just letting you know you are not alone.
    RishRamsey
    Just reaching out to say that I feel your pain. Exactly in the same boat as you. H literally eating away at my life, and I can't help but think how short my life would be (I am not much older than you).
    So you're not alone. I know hearing this doesn't help your own pain, but maybe it gives you some hope that you're not alone.
