Migraine.

It's here again. The migraine.
It's a once a month thing.

I woke up at 5:00 this morning and it hit me square in the face.

That pounding, nauseating, sick feeling that just overwhelms me.


I went downstairs and took 2 Excedrin Migraine tablets and went back to sleep on the couch until about 7:00. The boys were still sleeping upstairs.

When I woke up ... the headache was gone.

I still have the nausea ... it will be with me until about 3:00 or 4:00 this afternoon ... but the dreaded, pounding headache is GONE.

I do not know how I lived without Excedrin Migraine before. Actually I do ... I suffered through it. Thank God I finally found something that works for me.

Needless to say ... we are staying home today.
