4th of July has always been my favorite, I'm in love with fireworks. But I hate it now! I can't get away from the noise or pain! Jul 6, 2020

      Well...I guess I do have a lot of cute sundresses. That, at least, is going pretty well for me ;)

        If I could, I would blast my rock music again. Probably didn't help my T in the first place. What bands you like?

        Also, I look like Princes Leia wearing them because they stick so far off the sides of my head, but ooooh I love them.

        @Tavia R do they know why you have migraines? Have the checked for raised pressure in your head? Probably worth it. X

        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

        @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

        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.

        @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 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?

        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.

        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.
