Congratulations Cdm!!! Way to go.

As the weather heats up, I am more tempted to eat things that are not as good for me. Junk food and processed are my "easy outs". So I have tried to keep salad makings in the refrig and eat healthier. Lots of water. Do I want to cook (we don't have air in the house), NO but I want to be a healthy eater also.

So take care - be good to yourself.

Anybody in the group have experience with migraines? I have the occasional migraine maybe once a year but the one triggered by the cortizone shots doesn't want to leave. It started Friday and while nothing like it was the first couple of days I'm still getting twinges and it's not entirely gone. I still have pressure behind my eyes and at my temples. I've never had a headache linger this long and as I'm going out of town next week I need to get stuff done. Anybody have any remedies that help get rid of a headache that doesn't want to go?

Blondeslave, I certainly have experience with migraines - 30+ years. I am on a preventative which has really taken them down a couple of notches; both in frequency and how severe they are. A lot of my minor ones I can ward off with a Pepsi or Dr Pepper. Ones a little more stubborn can be knocked out with Excedrin (or store brand equivalent since they've been recalled). I have a Rx I take for the more severe ones. You might want to call your doctor that gave you the injections. I'm sure the migraines are a pretty common side effect and they would prescribe something. OR maybe your have a strong pain killer left over from a previous surgery that would knock it on it's butt. I hope you are able to get rid of it soon, like today. I'll talk to my daughter, the pharmacist, to see if she has any ideas.

Crystal.........whichever you chose to send. It doesn't matter to me one way or the other.
