The latest research indicating that Botox doesn't work for headaches, has dashed my hopes of a beauty treatment combined with a cure!
I just need to earn a living now, whilst dealing with bad head days...I don't get bad hair days!
I want to some research on pain assessment, for Chronic pain. Has anyone got any comments?
When you are a home Monday comes round just the same, and in fact now I "work" NORMAL hours, having given up shifts I am back in my office this morning looking out across at the pond. Which is incidentally bursting with Tadpoles. If they all hatch into Frogs, we will have a garden full.
My headache this morning is rather like the morning just dull, an ache that has got worse since I decided to the housework. Yes I know, I am not good at housework, and what's more I HATE it, but it has to be done. I feel guilty now I am at home all the time too, and my husband is out working, so I make an effort.
However my head does not approve! The pain has crept a couple of points on the pain scale having done it. But hey, I have got a clean house! Well downstairs anyway.
I am working hard on my website, to bring information and support to headache sufferers, but it is still in it's infancy.

An early start to a new day, and whilst I am trying to remain positive it is not easy.
My head is bad again, and I can't sleep. Nothing seems to make it better when it gets like this, and if I lay in bed I fidget, and fidget often waking my long suffering husband, so I thought I might as well get up and write today's blog.
Things aren't going too well despite my efforts to remain cheerful.
I can't help feeling guilty that I can't work,so I am determined to contribute something useful to our lives.
I am setting up a website on headaches...calling HEADBANGING...a great name ..well at least I think so!
It reminds me of those days in the distant past when I used to go to discos at the Turnford Colllege and other places...We used to stand in rows banging our heads to Led Zepplin!!!! The Greasers, in leather jackets, chains, black T shirts, and dirty torn jeans, the Hippies ( like me) in Maxi skirts, Tye Dye T shirts with voluminous sleeves, or brightly coloured loons, and of course my still much loved Dr Martens....And in those days I never had a headache!
There are some song lyrics about making it through the night, but I can't remember what they are! My headaches wake me up constantly through the night if I lie too flat, or move excessively I am woken by a pain pulsing through my head like a power drill.
Live with it! I am, oh I am, but what is living?
Thought for the day!
The clouds are fleeting gleefully across the sky as I look out of window this morning. When I walked the dogs with my long suffering husband at 6am, the ground was wet from a shower of rain.
Who wants a headache on a day like today?
