Really interested in everyone’s experience w it.

Need Help With Elevating Specific Migraine Symptoms.

Medication & Treatment?
I seem to get migraines right around my monthly cycle (Sorry if TMI) I get them so bad where I have to constantly go from the bed to the couch, has anyone tried anything other than medication?

Have Lots Of Issues And Wondering If This Could Be The Reason I Suffer From Migraines...

Your doctor should be able to answer that question better than us. Make an appointment. I'm sure he/she can help, but it sound probable.
Migraines Getting In The Way Of Work

I’ve been missing work (dental assistant) and can’t help but feel mass amounts of guilt. No one there gets them, so I feel like no one understands how awful they are. Anyone else to through anything similar? I love my job and dread calling in, but some days I can’t get out of bed due to migraines. Any advice is much appreciated!
Migraines are covered under the FML act. I have intermittent leave. It protected my job and let all the bullies know that it is a valid medical diagnoses that incapacitates me.
