Last night went to sleep with a hot water bottle at the back of the neck. Why? I read that some people's migraine pain eased when they warmed their head/neck. And have been having stiffness on the right side of the back of the neck (the joint between the scull and neck bone) since migraines started. Thought that no harm to try it. And took evening primrose oil capsules, according to the instruction.
Can't believe that it worked!! Didn't have any migraine since yesterday morning. And don't feel irritable, either. It must have been the imbalance of female hormones that gave me the pain for such a long period of time. Glad to find out exactly what triggered the mi grains last month. Well, to be honest, even though am quite sure evening primrose oil was the cure, am crossing my fingers. And also realised that must look after myself properly. It was a bad idea to get back to my normal routine as soon as I felt the worst was over when having a flu. And it was also very bad to start a big clearing out project for this house at the same time. Am not a superwoman, after all.
So, must start doing what I couldn't do for the past month, such as letter-writing, baking and creative writing. Today, made a dough for a kugelhopf and will have home-made pizza for tea. Lovely to have a pain-free 24 hours for a change. Must keep taking the oil for a while.
