Been struggling with the pain

My head pain has been at an 8/10 for a week now, and none of my painkillers do anything anymore. My neurologist has raised my diamox, so now it’s just a painful waiting game for it to work.
Anyone else had problems like this before?

A life update #CheckInWithMe

I wanted to let y’all know why I’ve been so inconsistent with posting
I went to the ER two days ago at 4am cause my pain had been at an 8/10 for 48 hours at that point
All they could do for me was give me a drug induced nap not take away any of the pain so I’m back home again in the same pain
So that's ✨fun✨

Hi all :)

Happy I found this group but sad that we have this awful diagnosis uniting us. This may have been shared before but wanted to add to the group in case it had not, bc it definitely feels like my high pressure/bad migraine days. #IIH #iihmemes #Migraine #ChronicPain #ChronicIllness

What do you do to get through?

On rough days, what are some ways you work to help yourself through the pain that, like the meme, isn’t better?
