I dub your headaches Migrus Magnus.
Mine almost never lead to headaches any more. I get visual symptoms and sometimes I can’t come up with words I’m trying to say. If I do get a headache it’s not disabling.
Those visual symptoms drive me nutso. When I can get to a 20oz Mountain Dew I drink one as a beta blocker. Dew is not the most healthy drink but it’s the cheapest beta blocker I’ve found.
I went through a period of about 20 years where the migraines changed in nature from pain, nausea and light and sound sensitivity to flashing lights, blurred vision, nausea and massive confusion, including stuttering.
Now I have all the symptoms that a migraine can cause, and the headaches can still vary in length from one to ten days, and vary in severity from mildly excruciating to flat out deadly.
And thanks for the Headache moniker!
