The Source

Greetings faithful readers...

Well I have discovered the source of the migraines over the last two days. You see, I have been on high blood pressure medication for the last 5 years or so due to hypertension. It isn't sky high...just high enough to have controlled by medication. HBP runs in my family, but the Dr. said that I have agitated it with high stress. Well, my body adjusted to the current level of medication and the medicine just wasn't affective. Thus..the migraines. I adjusted my medication and within the hour, my migraine was downgraded to just a headache...and then gone.

I hate that I have to keep taking medicine to control a malady. However, the alternative is heart disease, excessive hypertension, headaches, and death.

Don't feel like kicking the oxygen habit...so I'll keep taking my meds. I am also trying to control the stress side of things by establishing some more margin in my schedule. Please pray for me as I try to balance everything...and now my health. See you this weekend for a GREAT service!
