Ugggh!! Migraines suck!

I struggle with migraines and it is no fun. Back in September I started keeping track of the days that I got a migraine. Between September 1, and December 31, I've had 50 migraines!! That is too many. Why have I waited so long in going to the Dr. to get a preventative? I don't know, probably because I don't like asking people to watch my kids for stuff like that. Maybe it's because I get annoyed with going to the Dr. so much. It could be that with 4 kids and a husband all that goes into my busy days, when I have a minute, I'd rather not go to the Dr. office. I know those aren't good enough reasons and that I need to take care of myself. I go to the Dr. on Tuesday, hopefully to get a preventative, and to talk with her about other stuff surrounding my migraines.

I'm on a medication that I take at the onset of a migraine and that helps, it really does, but so far in the 10 days of January, I've had 9 migraines! It seems like I can't do anything without triggering one, which means I either go through life getting migraines everyday, or I don't have a life at all. It's quite frustrating! Hopefully, I can figure this all out.
