One of the worst thing about migraines isn't the ones that I get normally. On the 10 point pain scale I would rate my normal headache a 5 or 6 which I take medication for, wait a couple hours and go on with my day. I might be a little foggy headed and frustrated but I can get on with my life.

Then there are mornings like this morning when I woke up with a headache that was so bad that I knew I wouldn't be going anywhere or doing anything before I even left my bed. So an 8 or 9 on that 10 point scale. Where the meeting at work that I had been telling everyone that was too important to reschedule had to be rescheduled, where I had to cancel getting my hair appointment and my dinner reservations. I was very glad that Zach had to do things today because there is nothing he can really do when I am like that but I was also very happy when he came home with some food and an energy drink that he thought would help me.

I am feeling better now, if really tired and drugged up but I hate thinking that this could happen at any time and it ruins so many days of my life. I want to be someone that people can depend on but I sometimes feel like I can't depend on my own head.
