So, I beat a migraine today...

I out-smarted it with an herbal treatment. I get a migraine (mig) one day out of the month, every month. It's hormonal. Now, I have never been one of those winy, helpless, "oh, poor pms'ing me" types. Life goes on and it's never slowed me down before. And I haven't suffered with migraines my whole life either. They began after the birth of my second little gem. I went on the pill and started having mig.'s only on the 'blank' pill days. The doc said that is a good thing, because I was not reacting to the hormones in the pills, but the withdrawal from the hormones on my 'cycle' days. A GOOD THING SHE SAYS!! The mig. meds didn't work well so we (hubby & I) decided to go off the pill. The Mig.'s remained. I have tried prescription meds, over the counter meds, dark, quiet rooms and cold compresses, praying through it (but still go through it), and seeking God's grace in it. Today I took butterbur root capsules at the very early on-set. Worked beautiful. Killed it entirely. Thank you Jesus.

this is me....
