Apparently, Magnesium Oxide is effective as both a prophylactic and treatment for migraines. I need to get some and try it out. Here's hoping!
Work has finally slowed down a little, but it's been crazy in here. Everyone was rather shellshocked by the extreme volume of calls, but it's not so bad now. When I went on my first two breaks, I was too frazzled even to read, but I got a bit of reading in on my last break, as well as about five minutes of just breathing in the dark, trying to will my migraine dots away. They bloom like oil spots on water, and float around on the surface of my vision in a similar fashion.
I'm beginning to suspect that my migraines may be caused by the lighting at work. Either that or the stress. I'm not sure which. I've put in a request to be able to wear a hat for a while, to see if that helps, but I'm frankly very doubtful they will allow it. They pride themselves on their clothing rules lawyering, here.
Tonight, I shall be playing Starfarers of Catan. It will be my first gaming night in quite some time. I hope my brain is competent to deal with it!
I've also had another dance performance opportunity open for me, but I'm a bit leery. It's for something called East Coast Women's Expo, and I have the sneaking suspicion they want me to pay to dance there. If this is the case, pffft! As if!
But we shall see....
