Had a Tough Week

So I've had a migraine since last Monday. Needless to say this past week has been a challenge. The rescue meds, which usually do a pretty good job are not. They take about 5 hours to make a noticeable difference and even then I'm not getting much relief. Then, within a few hours I can already feel them wearing off as the migraine just intensifies. I've been timing the medications so that I can still do stuff like visiting with my g-ma in-law, going out and running errands.

I was fully expecting an ugly backlash after all the cooperation I got during my grandma's final couple months, but still, it sucks. I'm trying to keep my spirits up but as usual this kind of a set back not only drags my spirit down, but it also makes me more irritable and leaves me feeling less hopeful about ever getting on top of the pain.

How I long for a normal life again. Will I ever have one?
