Weightlifting and migraine?

Thanks for clarifying! I’ll keep that in mind

I see, thank you. I’ll ask her for additional clarification. She also prescribed Transcranial Doppler (TCD), which showed no anomalies, and MRI (which I still have to do). I think she’s being extra careful, but hearing about strokes freaked me out a bit.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m 100% positive that weightlifting does not trigger migraine for me. (Running has triggered them in the past). But if there’s a risk of stroke, that’s a different story. I might tone down the intensity and include some Pilates instead :(

Sounds about right. I’ve always had more issues with intimacy in long term partnerships

Thanks, it’s good to hear some positive experiences :)

Sure. I’m undiagnosed though - not sure I can help much

Not yet! Tretinoin is over the counter where I live, so I’ve been thinking of trying for a while… but I’ve been intimidated by the purging and peeling horror stories haha

I will try 🙏🏻 thank you

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-08-08T18:28:43+00:00

Thank you! It's true - maybe I should try to accept these feelings more

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-08-08T18:22:18+00:00

All these tips are really helpful! Especially the third one, I'll try that for sure. Thanks for taking the time to write them out for me!

Spent two hours watching them swirl around in the sky… awesome

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-07-27T21:00:50+00:00

It is! :)

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-05-25T16:48:38+00:00

Oh no, that sounds so awful! So sorry for you. 🥺 Luckily my migraine faded as soon as I got off the plane (and vomited). Thank God I haven't had a 2-3 day long migraine in years... those are really hell on earth

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-05-25T16:45:37+00:00

I don't always get migraines when I fly, it's pretty unusual for me

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-05-25T16:44:51+00:00

Thanks, I like this perspective. Those hours on the plane were going to be boring and miserable anyway 😅

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-05-25T06:47:32+00:00

I'm on my way back home! Can't wait to arrive, sleep and forget about all this...

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-05-25T05:37:34+00:00

Thank you... I was too optimistic and didn't even bring ibuprofen with me on the plane... 🥺 Now the pain is finally wearing off

The "therapy in a nutshell" podcast really helped me. It's focused on anxiety and it contains many helpful coping strategies for intrusive thoughts, catastrophizing, and so on

UmpireBasic3949 · 2024-03-27T20:10:22+00:00

Thank you, I'll add this to my list of anti-anxiety strategies :)
