Living with Pain

Hi.
You will learn, eventually, that I have a lot of "problems". I always say that from the neck down, I'm healthy. It's from the neck on up where I have all my problems. 
Aside from the lovely depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc that I have been blessed with, I, also, suffer with migraines and tension headaches. It sounds just lovely, I know.
I guess I could say that I live with chronic pain. But I don't ever say that. I don't know why. I guess I just like for people to know that all the pain is specifically located in my head....so that if I seem to be stupid, they understand why.

Ok. Now I'm just trying really hard to be funny.

I do have tremendously painful migraines and tension headaches. I've been seeing a neurologist for about six years. Prior to that, I lived with headaches for seven years. I just thought I had bad sinuses...seeing as how I had infected sinuses and had sinus surgery when I was 18 years old. 
I went to an ENT, and everything looked normal to them. They sent me to a neurologist. I didn't understand why at the time.
Apparently, I had the type of migraines that produce mucus and such. So I had pretend sinus problems...it was really migraines.

So here, six years later, I still have some of the worst pain imaginable on a daily or weekly basis. I have tried so many different medications, muscle relaxers, injections. At the moment, I am taking the Aimovig injection (took my first injection yesterday). We'll see how this works. Nothing can make me feel any worse than I do now.

The point of all this is to explain why I am sometimes absent from writing anything...horrible pain (that and just not knowing where to begin with a topic). 

We can add chronic pain to the list of things I'll discuss.
I just have to get my act together. I can't become a world renown writer and blogger if I'm sitting here not writing and blogging.

Not that it matters right now, anyway, because I have no audience.
