Migraines!!
So I have suffered from migraines for over 10 years now. I had been taking prescribed rizatriptian (maxalt). Since finding out I'm pregnant I don't want to touch the stuff incase it causes harm to baby. I think I'm roughly 7 weeks and my first appointment with the Midwife's is on the 9/4.
Yesterday was my first 12 hour shift since I found out a week ago and I had the mother of all migraines I had to leave an hour early as I thought I was going to pass out and almost vomited. The only thing I took was paracetamol which did not touch it. I've been suffering overnight and woke up this morning with the left over of it. At least I can get up and do things.
Any other migraine sufferers out there that can relate? I don't want it to affect my work, I nurse veterans and dealing with medications but when I have a migraine like that and can't take my prescribed meds then I am no use 😭.
