Actually, bride of frankenstein would be good wacky batty - his line could change by saying "I vant to suck your AN" instead of blood.

Hey, is chocolate a good conductor of electricity - if not, Batty might not get zapped at all! ;D

back to work for me - yukko, boring, yuk, I want the weekend back.

  Since my an operation Oct. 02, I am not joking---I have not had 1 single headache, not one.   I am very lucky for that and I know it.  No pain anywhere!  My heart goes out for all of you.  Hang in there, I hope things will improve.

I had migraine all my life, and i honestly do not know if it is related to ANs.
I have tried everything and some medicine worked well. It was in fact the one for arrhythmia or angina that kept the migraines at bay.
But they always had the pain in the head with it after the first symptoms which were, numbness of the nose, butterflies in the stomach, cols extremities, vertigo, nausea. Then the pain on only one side of the head. it was serious enough to be confined in bed, dark room, no noises for 3 days, vomiting constantly. Then it would go away by itself as no medicine could do anything once the symptoms were strongly in place. Now than I have aged, I have the migraines still but without the pain, so it is because of this that I replied to your post.
It still last 2 or 3 days but the only proof that it is a migraine are the symptoms and a faint tightness on the top of my right brow, which I recognize well.

I sympathise with you Antoinette.

My best remedy is to be as wacky as possible and try to laugh - at least I get a few minutes break from the pain which at times is unbearable.
