Month
4 had fewer debilitating migraines, but not fewer overall headaches. One issue though was that I ran out of Gabapentin
in the third week of January and so my quality and quantity of sleep really began
to suffer. And when I don’t get enough
sleep or quality sleep, that’s a trigger.
Last weekend of the month I got back on it and started sleeping better
immediately. In a few days the headaches
had calmed again.

3 Month Post Surgery Update
Dr.
Rose said that it would take between 1 and 3 months for me to
notice a difference in the number of headaches.
Month 1 was bad, but I was trying to stay positive. Month 2 I went from my usual 22+ days a month
of headaches to only 15 days! But month 3 was back to 23 days with a
headache. Determined to still remain
hopeful I decided to look at not just the frequency of headaches, but also the
intensity. While month 2 was again like
most months pre-surgery, month 2 was an excellent month again and so was month
4. I guess ultimately, the jury is still
out.
