Migraine, day 5

[unixronin]

Very short update because I can't stand to be in front of a CRT for more than a few minutes.  Five days in now, and I still can't tolerate bright light.  I'm OK as long as I stay in a dark or dimly lit room.  As soon as I come back into normal illumination, the clock starts ticking, and I have at most about a half hour before I have to retreat to the dark again.  My doctor has me on Demerol and Vistaril; I'm not convinced it's noticeably helping.  It certainly doesn't stop the skullsplitting headaches.  The good news is at least I'm no longer nauseous, but that's small consolation when I basically can't DO anything.
