Headache Note

I had changed brands of Zonegran.  Unfortunately, I don't think this brand is working very well.  I think I've just entered a headache cycle.  (It seemed to be triggered by odd head movement, but I have no idea for certain.)  At any rate, I think I had a seizure too.  :(

My headache cycle seems to be trying to decide whether it wants to start or not...  It's been trying to start since yesterday...  No seizures yet...  My brain is kind of bugging me, but no "oppressive gloom" headaches yet either.

I might be starting another headache cycle...  (Had a short one earlier)...  Earlier than I was expecting...  *sigh*  Hopefully it won't be so bad...

I guess I'm in another headache cycle.  Every moment my head isn't killing me I've spent sleeping.  (Headache/Seizure hangover)...  I'm not sure how many seizures I've had, but not too many I don't think.  It's really gone down with the medication.

The headaches started Thursday night without warning.  I was watching television, then suddenly screaming at the top of my lungs.  I'm not sure if it was the pain level, or my screaming but I lost consciousness a couple of times after that.  Mom said she couldn't tell if they were faints (LQTS or Dysautonomia), or seizures.  Possibly both...

The pain level dwindled a little though.  The aura is ridicules, and has lasted for over twenty-four hours at this point.  I can barely think because of the fireworks in my head.  My seizure warning is almost constant too, but then the seizure doesn't actually come.

Codeine, Imitrex, Zomig, etc. does nothing for these headaches.  I still cry in anticipation of them...  I don't know what to do with myself...  My throat actually hurts now from screaming at my headaches...  Hopefully this cycle is almost over...  At least it's not as bad as off anti-epileptics...
