Today was the day that did not exist for me… Having made it to work this morning (a nice brisk 20 minute walk, courtesy of delays on the transport), I have spent only 20 minutes or so in the office before I had to return back home. Today was the day when migraine decided to come back to haunt me for the first time in quite a few years (at least 5, I think). I get the classic symptoms of migraine: the silvery halo that obstructs my vision at first (with what seems like freaky multicolour zigzags when I close my eyes). And then, after the vision improves as the halo shrinks in size, I get the most horrendous headache coupled with nausea. The key for me is to take painkillers as soon as I notice the vision going bad, otherwise it will be too late and the pain will be unbearable.
