Hey friends,I haven’t said anything in here for a quite awhile! I’ve been NED for a couple years now (whoot!)
I just had my 4th and *maybe* last baby in November! His name is Jack and he’s the sweetest boy.
Anyhow, I find myself worrying about somethings I’ve been dealing with. I’ve had a full body check in August at Dartmouth in New Hampshire. I wasn’t a fan of their office actually. Felt like I was just another number. But that’s beside the point. We are currently moved back to every 3 month appointments instead of yearly because we are watching about 3-4 moles as we speak. The last week or so I’ve now woken up twice with the absolute worst migraine I’ve ever had. I have always dealt with migraines and headaches but my migraines basically stopped happening after a certain age. I woke up last week and almost couldn’t see straight because my head hurt so bad. I then spend the rest of the day on and off vomiting from the pain. Which was horrible while trying to take a care of a needy baby and my husband sleeping off the night shift. By the end of the day I felt slightly better and was able to eat and keep things down. Now I woke up today a couple days later and I once again am sick from a migraine. I’m so exhausted and just want to sleep all day. So anyways, of course since this is very sudden and onset I’m worried about it. I called my PCP just to see if he can do anything for me.
Not sure why I’m writing that in here about it. Just worried I suppose. The beast always haunts me. Hope y’all are doing well. Much love.

Hi there. Have you considered getting an MRI? I would just to rule out that there are no mets in your brain. I had terrible migraines and that is how they discovered my brain mets. But I didn’t have them in the morning. And they were accompanied by auras. And I had no vomiting. Since you have had migraines before, maybe they’ve come back. I would check though. Keep us posted.-

I’ve tried but my insurance doesn’t want to do it without more proof that I need it. Just gonna ride it out and hope it past!
