NOTE: Skip if not in the mood for a pity party/sob story.


Not me. See, I've had insomnia since I was 17. For years it was easily treatable, and for years on and off I did nothing to treat it, just lived with little sleep. Then I had a brain tumor. And starting the day of my craniotomy to remove it, my insomnia went off the charts. I was wide awake in ICU the night of surgery. That's in my chart--it's not my imagination. Something changed/happened during the brain surgery, but no one can explain it. Everything imaginable was being monitored during the surgery.

It's now so bad that no drug, no dosage, no combination of drugs puts a dent in it. It sucks.

/pity party

That's not a pity party. That's pretty serious.

No sleep is horrible. It gets to the point it can hurt. I fell your pain.

Ive been told Caffein cures headaches ..
I rarely get even little headaches but my sister gets bad migraines and if she is so bad that she has to go to hospital they always give her an I.V. cocktail of fluids pain med and caffein
So must be something about the combination of all three

Yeah coca cola was originally a headache cure but that might have been the cocaine in it (true story) than the caffeine lol

 

[huh]

yeah that works too...! hahaha



hmmm...so much to randomly ramble...

my friend just told me that she overheard her 6 YO daughter talking to her friend about foreign languages and she said.."yeah, I know how to speak a little Minion!" hahaha!!!
speaking of..they were both over here last night to celebrate my new house..and we kind of had a bit too much...so didn't want to drive...and stayed up pretty late...so ended up sleeping (basically passing out)...all three of us in my new king bed....my husband wakes up in the morning...sees all three of us next to him and says ..um yeah well this is disappointing that was NOT how I was hoping waking up to three women in my bed would ever turn out!!! hahaha!!! goof

Thanks.

I really understand Michael Jackson's desperation just to get some sleep. But using a drug [propofol] that induces unconsciousness, not sleep, was not the right approach!

It can help, particularly with migraines as it makes the blood vessels constrict and migraines are apparently due to blood vessels expanding. Can't recall where I read that, but probably on a migraine-related website. Most over-the-counter migraine tablets have caffeine.

Also, if you're a coffee addict like myself, missing your morning coffee will give you a headache that in the 'right' conditions could develop into a migraine. Personally, soon as I get a headache I hit it with pain killers as it's easier to kill a potential migraine at that stage rather than wait for it to develop then discover you can't keep the pain killers down :afraid:

There's an ad on TV at the moment that claims caffeine aids the absorption of pain killers. Don't know how true this is.

Hyrdration is definitely a factor, though: I find that I can get a hangover if I don't drink masses of water after going dancing (where I sweat like a pig in a sauna - there's a nice image for y'all ) even though I don't drink and dance (alcohol and double spins don't mix ). Low blood sugar (from not eating) can also cause problems and if you feel a migraine coming on, forcing yourself to eat and drink can help - particularly alongside some pain killers

I used that program when Motorola came to my school. There was a project to design backgrounds for their watches.

I love big, fluffy, puffy, white clouds.

(That's the view from my front porch. The clouds are over the San Gabriel Mountains. Right now, down here in the SG Valley, it's 100 degrees. )

 

[Unforgiven]

I like pretty clouds too. This is from my back yard in Douglas, MA looking north. A few weeks ago.
