Short Update
Feb. 21st, 2008 02:07 pmI'm recovering from Influenza Strain B, one of the 60% of flu viruses not covered in the vaccine this year. I'm doing a lot better today, and hope to be near to fully functional by Monday. ¡Ojalá!
A suggestion about migraines from my friend bethn:
i know this will sound odd,but if the migraine is not one one th absolutely critical ones, ( mine tend to come in varying degrees), try putting feet in very hot water with vicks or some camphor/mentholated rub on temples. it seems to knock back the pain. if you were my russian baba, i'd tell you to tie an old rag around your head too. she swore by that
dr said there is actually some scientific value, the hot water draws blood away from head so not so much pressure
