Hey! I'm new here, obviously. A little about me- I'm 30, happily married for almost 9 years now, and I have 2 beautiful daughters (ages 3 and 2). Like flipping a light switch, I had chronic hemipelegic migraines start during the 2nd trimester of the pregnancy with my first. Ever since then, I've had average of 4-6 migraines per week. Seeing a neurologist who specializes in migraines and have tried many things so far, but nothing that really seems to make a big impact. We will continue trying, but in the meantime, here I am. I had to quit working as a dental hygienist because of the migraines and am in the process of applying for disability, but still waiting for a hearing. Ughhh. Anyways, glad to have found this forum and y'all. Hope y'all are having a blessed day!

@OllivandersMama Welcome to the community and I wish you good fortune on the turnout of your hearing. I hope you will find some of the help and support you may need in this family. We have some really wonderful people here.

 
Hope you find some relief and good luck to you with disability, don’t give up like I did years back and now have to start over the process . It can be a very long process but worth it in the end! ❤️

 
Hello. I don’t know much about hemipelegic migraines in particular, but considering they started suddenly during pregnancy, it might be hormone related. Hormonal treatment greatly reduced my own chronic migraines, so if nothing else is working it might be worth looking into. Even though you weren’t asking for advice, I wanted to share since most neurologists don’t try this route in treatment. Hope no offense was caused. Either way I wish you the best of luck.

 
Welcome. This siye seems a little lackluster. But it is a wealth of information and informed people

Thanks y'all! Sorry I'm just now replying. This site is pretty confusing for me and honestly I had no idea how to get back here until now. But thanks for the support and encouragement! To answer a couple of your questions, I did finally get a SSD Hearing for Dec 16th, so yay!! 🤞 As for my migraines being hormonal, we haven't TOTALLY written that off, but that was first road we went down for testing etc. , but unfortunately no answers so far. And definitely no offense at all! I'm almost to the point where I'm ok to never really know what's causing them. From other people with these kinds of migraines, I've heard from their extensive research that there can be a gene that we are born with that will either trigger randomly at some point in our life or in some people, it never reveals itself. I don't know.

@OllivandersMama Yay for a hearing! Someone i know was recently accepted for disability for severe recurring migraines.  And hemiplegic migraines are so scary. Hopefully you have found at least some relief since your last post!! 

And as far as this forum being confusing, i'm not sure if you've tried using it with a laptop/desktop but i find it makes a lot more sense in that format than a mobile.  It also helps if you go in your account settings and play with your notifications so that you are alerted when people post on your topics or message you and whatnot.  I really really hope you get accepted for disability and that you have at least some relief!!! Good luck and stay strong!

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢
  5. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Sorry for comment below, but I couldn’t delete. Know I see the
  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP
  8. L @ Layne_Cobain: @ClintEastwood make a post about it homie they’re gonna take down your message here cuz shout box isn’t really for talking shop just random shooting the shit exc but yeh just put your message in a post on the forum in the appropriate place and ppl will get at you! 👊 ✌️
  9. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
