Daith piercing #screwMigraines

Just wanted to quickly share that I’ve suffered my entire life with migraines. On average I would have anywhere from 14-25 a month 😦 freakin debilitating. Until my sister who also suffered from migraines decided to go get her daiths pierced. ( cartilage inner ear right smack dab on a pressure point) Me personally I am a tattoo person not piercings was reluctant, a year had gone by, me still dying to live a normal life gave in ( I hate piercings I’m a wuss) drove to a respected piercer who traveled to different shops specializing in migraine relief. I literally sat in the parking lot for 2 hours not wanting to go through with it /:
Anxiety set in.
Smoked one more cig and put some gangster rap on pumped myself up and walked in. I wanted to throw up.
This being a tattoo shop and me having a full sleeve I felt comfortable there. Many of my friends have their own shops so I’m no stranger to the chair, and the intoxicating sound of the gun, and the odd satisfaction of pain. Introduced myself and as directed after signing waivers she began to prep her station. Pretty sure I was at stroke level with my blood pressure lol. She pulled out this hook SERIOUSLY YALL I could catch BASS with!!!!!!!!😧 🐟🐟🐟🐟🎣🎣🎣 she used s sharp tool to find my pressure point, and then boom without warning pierced my daith. OMG the worst pain, time for the other ear, I wanted to leave right then I’m pretty tough (3 c-sections, endometriosis, full hysterectomy) I’m no stranger to pain BUT THIS 😬 “lay flat on your back we’ll get the other one”.
Y’all I wasn’t in the damn fetal position 🤣
—short story long— haha for months and months I walked around with sore ears, cute piercings—AND FEWER HEADACHES AND MIGRAINES. A year has gone by, guess how many migraines I’ve had each month? In average TWO MAYBE THREEEE 👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 #hellyes
