MARGOT’S TIP: i learned long ago you can fend off migraines if you take a painkiller immediately, once you think it might just be a headache.
that's the advice i got from the neurologist who diagnosed my migraines. she gave me triptans, and told me as soon as i get the first hint of an aura i take it. now instead of having the 3h aura and then a 9-24 hour migraine, i get a 15 mins aura and a 2-hour headache. makes me sleepy but yknow. i'll take it
i should get the MRI she prescribed me sometime tho. it's been like, 10 years
