So yesterday morning I woke up at 5 with a vague headache, lay in bed a bit until it was clear it was getting worse, took two ibuprofen and sat up for a while with a wet cloth on my forehead feeling vaguely miserable and nauseous, and then went back to sleep and when I woke up again it was gone. This is about how I expect my migraines to work, although I haven't had many recently. (Yes, I'm very lucky.)

Then last night I couldn't sleep, so I went and sat up reading fic, and then developed a terrible migraine and spent the next three hours crying in pain and occasionally puking. Possibly if I'd taken meds sooner it wouldn't have been as bad, but man. And then

consultingpiskies (very reasonably) insisted I sleep in so it is now 4:30 and I haven't done anything useful except feed the cat.
