Monthly period
August 26th, 2010 @ 4:40 pm

…. of migraine headache attack!   This usually comes once a month, much like a monthly period.  I just had an  attack very early this morning.  I have the onset of symptoms like flashing of lights (aura)-  experiencing flashing, brightly colored lights in a zigzag pattern usually starting in the middle of the visual field and progressing outward; and  nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.  It is already a warning signal that an impending headache is coming and  for sure, I will be pinned down to bed the whole day because the symptoms sensitivity to light and sound.  I considered sleep as the best possible medicine.  

My husband knows that if I had migraine headache that he will leave me alone and that he will not bother me for I will prefer to lie in our room with lights out during the attack till I got up and feel fine after around 12-24 hours.  Vomiting is the best relief that I can have then I will sleep and forget about the throbbing pain. 

Around 5pm  my husband knew perfectly well that I am doing fine for I am already working on this blog and chatting in the Facebook on the sideline. 

I have gotten used to this migraine thing that I already consider it as a monthly visitor.
