When I was a little kid, my grandpa always complained of having migraine whenever there are problems in the house… no matter how little it is, whenever there is a slight argument or puny problem, he would say, “Aiya, migrain oo..” Then we would laugh together… because it’s like even a small matter can make a person headache or something. And I have never imagined myself having migraine, not ever! Nor having high blood pressure. LOL. Why am I laughing, this is a serious matter… arrgh.

So, it’s official. I had migraine a few days ago and the doctor checked my blood pressure and it’s still 140. Damn.

When I first learned that I had high blood pressure, I was like, “Finally, I’m a man.” Just kidding. But you know what I mean. Because before this, the only sickness I had was my skill to exaggerate my own fake sickness so I would have an excuse for my brain to decide that I had to skip classes… or even lectures. Hahaa.

Now I’m like, “Please dear The One Above, I don’t want to eat pills everyday for the rest of my life. I’m too young for that.

Hmm… I said that I felt like a man because previously I don’t have any allergies or whatever (except for flu but I’m way past that already muahahaa) and I don’t remember how many times I got the flu. Not because I had so many of them, but because I only experienced a few. And I remember that whenever I get the flu, my mood would swing there and there.  And if there was anyone who dared to bother me, I would give the “I’m gonna bite your face if you don’t get far away from me.” Okay, that’s a poor example of an angry face because someone really did that to another person. There are also other zombie-like incidents happening around. The world is getting crazy… or crazier. Advertisement skijap.

As I mentioned, I went to the doctor’s.

LOL. I should erase the doc’s name or she would be pissed off after reading this entry.

The amount of medicine she gave me was just ridiculous. I dunno la, maybe it is right. Maybe I do need these 4 different type of ubat to cure me. But right now, I feel that she gave me too much.

It’s also funny how all of the sickness mentioned is different but we always thought they were the same. At least I did. Hahaa.

Talking about this, what is migraine actually?

A migraine is a severe, painful headache that is often preceded or accompanied by sensory warning signs such as flashes of light, blind spots, tingling in the arms and legs, nausea, vomiting, and increased sensitivity to light and sound. The excruciating pain that migraines bring can last for hours or even days.

I sincerely hope that the absence of all those symptoms apart from headache will continue until I fully recover. Damn.

And how do people get migraines?

1) Allergies and allergic reactions

2)Bright lights, loud noises, and certain odors or perfumes

3) Physical or emotional stress

4) Changes in sleep patterns or irregular sleep

5) Smoking or exposure to smoke

6) Skipping meals or fasting

7) Alcohol

8) Menstrual cycle fluctuations, birth control pills, hormone fluctuations during menopause onset

9) Tension headaches

10) Foods containing tyramine (red wine, aged cheese, smoked fish, chicken livers, figs, and some beans), monosodium glutamate (MSG), or nitrates (like bacon, hot dogs, and salami)

11) Other foods such as chocolate, nuts, peanut butter, avocado, banana, citrus, onions, dairy products, and fermented or pickled foods.

Mine is probably mainly because of mind stress, annoying sheeps that I try to count at night, and often hearing Transformers transforming inside my tummy (I know I said about the transformers thing a lot but I don’t care because the sound is just too funny to be associated with the hungry sound hahaa).

Maybe I sound like this isn’t a serious matter but believe me, I know it is. I’m just trying to make myself calm.

Eniweiz… so how do we counter or treat migraines?

Wait a minute……

………………..

Wakakaaka.

So, I guess I’ll have less migraine in the future.

But have to wait for a few years though.

And I’m gonna make sure I have no migraine… at all… if you know what I mean. Wakakaa again.

I’m feeling much better now. So long didn’t post anything. Will reply all the comments and visit you all back this week yo. In the meantime…

Happy Thursday, everyone!
