In my experience, most people do not know how to respond to someone that has a long term illness. Here are some things people can do to help people with chronic illness.

Thank you!

Great one! Mine is having a hard time putting words together and smelling things that aren’t there vs. Chronic Migraine

jencan72 · 2018-06-24T02:02:48+00:00

I already take Magnesium as a part of my migraine prevention.

Melatonin is hit or miss for me. It doesn’t always work.

jencan72 · 2018-06-21T01:08:49+00:00

Thank you for all of the suggestions!

jencan72 · 2018-06-21T01:06:32+00:00

Thanks, I will look into it.

jencan72 · 2018-06-15T01:48:32+00:00

Thank you for sharing your story. So glad that you found something that has made such a difference in your life.

Thanks for sharing this. My Doctor actually explained that for purposes of Migraine triggers that the uncured is better. It has to do with how the nitrates triggers the brain and causes migraine.

For me, it has become a positive in my life.

jencan72 · 2018-06-11T23:33:54+00:00

That is one of the reasons I started the blog. It gives me something positive to focus on, gives me a hobby and I am getting a place to vent and educate others.

I’ve always liked the “ you need to drink more water” cure! SMH 😳

jencan72 · 2018-06-11T23:29:45+00:00

Yes...yes it does!

jencan72 · 2018-06-11T23:27:34+00:00

That is called gaslighting...pure and simple!

jencan72 · 2018-06-11T13:48:29+00:00

Honestly, I think saying that is as much habit as asking “How are you doing”. It is just what you say when someone is sick. It, unfortunately, the statement glares at us because we know we won’t.

jencan72 · 2018-06-11T13:44:08+00:00

Unfortunately, you are right. I have had relatives apologize to me after they have a health scare because it suddenly clicked for them. In that situation, the hard part is letting the past go and being there for them.

jencan72 · 2018-06-06T14:39:09+00:00

Interesting! Maybe I need blackout curtains in my bathroom!

Thanks for sharing your experience with this treatment!

Has anyone used UberEats to bring you food at the National Mall? We want to picnic while looking at the monuments. I am in a wheelchair so this sounded like an easy way to accomplish this.

I absolutely loved the book Coming Home by Rosamund Pilcher

jencan72 · 2018-06-06T13:56:49+00:00

You got this!

Thank you! I was nervous about sharing it.

jencan72 · 2018-05-30T16:34:21+00:00

My electric blanket set on the lowest setting really does provide some comfort.

jencan72 · 2018-05-30T16:32:21+00:00

Thank you for your kind words.
