What is it like to be pain free?

For the longest time I’ve suffered with Migraines. Each year they grow stronger in intensity and come more frequently. Doctors can’t seem to find my triggers and so I’m left wondering after I don anything if it’s going to give me one.

It’s hard to function when you either have a migraine or you’re worried when the next one will come. I’ve missed out on family events, school events, and everything in between.

My Migraines are not typical. They can last anywhere from 1 day to 1 week. My Auras are not always there and I never develop a specific region. There has been no medication that can relieve the either. I just spent the night in the Hospital pumped full of fluid and strong pain medication. This morning it is still here, also decreased in severity.

For me there is no relief and there is no way to tell if there ever will be. If you have any ideas please let me know.
