My period wasn't due for a couple more days, so I didn't think the headache I had felt building up today was related to my menstrual cycle. Now it's up to migraine level and I found that my period is starting. Well! So I took an Advil. I hope it will help. I took a Tramadol earlier today and my day hasn't been great. So how bad would it have been if I had NOT taken the pain medicine?!?
There really is a thing called Menstrual Migraine, it turns out. Hormone levels drop right before the period starts. Although the headache isn't fun, I'm glad to see "Aunt Flo" arrive. My periods are getting closer together and shorter. I welcome Menopause mostly.
Previously I had hoped that my Fibromyalgia symptoms might chill out after Menopause, but now I know many post-menopausal women with Fibro. Menopause meant no change in their FMS problems. Well, damn.
I managed to bake some bar cookies and plant 3 gladiolas bulbs and 3 Verbena plants earlier today. My son was home from school today because he had fever yesterday.
