ive always suffered chronic migraine, one landed me in hospital as my face drooped and i couldnt walk, they thought it was ms, i find walking helps mine, i know it sounds odd as its the last thing you actually want to do x

they still say i have relapsing and remitting ms but i think it was an allergy to an antibiotic as i had twice 4 years apart and the same thing happened 😕 i do have scar tissue on my brain from migraines though x

That sounds awful 😮 I have suffered migrains since a child but thankfully as ive got older theyve lessened but occasionally i get one that nakes my arm go numb and i started getting a strange smelling cigerette smoke a few times, but alot of things have changed with peri most for the worst.

Hi there!
When you mention your glands are swollen, which ones? I feel like the one on the right side of my neck/throat is a little swollen.

Even when your period has finished, do you still have stomach and back pains? My cycle ended a few days ago but I still get some stomach discomfort and don't have much of an appetite and some back pain.
