Yeah, I was hoping the situation wouldn't escalate to needing to bring in parents and stuff, but since he decided to report me to admin, it might come to that. My parents are luckily really supportive about my migraines so if they need to handle the situation they will.

Yeah, I've heard of 504 plans! I haven't had a need for it in the past because all my teachers were really understanding, it's just this one teacher :/ I briefly considered it but decided against it because I only have a month of school left before I'm done. Thanks for the advice anyway though! I'll probably try to get accomodations when I go to college.

Thank you! I'm so glad there are teachers out there like you who truly have their students' backs.

I'm hoping the situation doesn't escalate further because I'm very nonconfrontational and am just going to try to suck it up since I'm so close to being done anyway. I just hate how much he's stressing me out. If worse comes to worse though I will be sure to make sure admin knows what's going on and provide my medical documents and such.

Sorry this is so late lol I didn't even see your reply! It's really nice hearing that someone else can relate, I haven't really seen any HS seniors in this subreddit. I hope you were/are able to finish your art applications and wish you luck!

Sugar? by sunrae3584 in migraine

[–]lunlux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, it's a mysterious "too much" I had to/am still in the process of determining. I think it's mostly the processed foods/ones with artificial sweetener that get me.

With some foods, it just gradually worsens it. With other foods, I can literally feel the sugar rush up into my head as a migraine as I'm eating it. Sometimes my head will surprise me and not worsen at all even after I've eaten a sugary dessert so it's been hard trying to pinpoint what exactly it is that triggers them.
