Close Fibromyalgia
I began having symptoms my senior yr of college, but wasn't diagnosed for almost 10 yrs. Symptoms really flared & became bad about 7 yrs ago. Finally found a good dr. who says it is fibromyalgia. I have nausea, muscle aches, tender everywhere to the touch, muscle twitching, headaches and tiredness.
Treatments
- Heat Somewhat Helpful
- Helps sometimes at night for general muscl aches.

Open Migraine Headaches
I had my first migraine when I was in the 7th grade! I suffer from hemiplegic migraines, and get stroke like symptoms plus the pain. In high school & college I got a handful every week. After 2 pregnancies they have gotten better -- just a handful each year.
Treatments
- Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
- I don't eat artificial sugars, aspartame, poppy seeds. These all give me headaches instantly.
- Caffeine Working / Worked
- It works a little bit - it is also part of the pain med that I take.
- Imitrex Working / Worked
- I used to take the injection until they issued a statement that you shouldn't take imitrex w. hemiplegic migraines.
- Tylenol Working / Worked
