Right now I’m living between migraines. It’s like flying: when it’s working it feels wonderful and light and free; but when things go wrong it’s going to hurt. I’m getting about one a week and on the days when I don’t have a migraine, I am grateful and productive. At first I would be on tenterhooks anticipating the next fall (migraine), but that’s a waste of time and energy. This has helped me to be more present and appreciative of health, when I have it.
There’s a problem, though. My current prescription will run out just before I see my neurologist in a week or so. I’m hoping he will suggest some other medication so I don’t want to fill another repeat of the current one. I am coping pretty well on this lower dose with only a mild weekly migraine. If I go off all medication, I might go back to two or three migraines a week. Now cheapness and treatment are battling it out in my head. Which logic will win?
