Updating my pinned 🧵 :

I'm not active on Twitter anymore, so I'm rebuilding the #migraine and #MigraineChat community here. A few ways to connect....

The original MigraineChat feed stopped working, so like and pin this one. It works the same.
I know it's only February but I learned my lesson and ordered some summery clothes now.

Every year I forget that ~80% of the country warms up before Vermont, shops for warm weather outfits earlier, and my sizes sell out.

5:15p, the sky is still a bit light, horizon a little pink. I'll give that one win to February.

#MigraineChat if you've updated your iPhone to the recent software, any workarounds or rollbacks to some of the more triggering changes? Let OP know 👇🏻
The update iPhone had that added the transparency and 3D effect to my screen made video/reels flicker so I can’t spend much time online anymore. That’s the only thing I can think of that is different.

Seeking advice re: preventative medicine for #migraine I don’t want an antidepressant as I am now battling hormonal weight gain. Botox is delayed as my Dr has been injured and I’m finding that I am using my Zomig more frequently with our weird Winter. Any ideas? @migrainechat.bsky.social

My head hurts so fkn much and I'm not supposed to take any NSAIDs until my endoscopy, so shouldn't use my IM toradol. Nothing else has worked.

Furnace decided to crap out overnight. Getting a tad chilly. Hoping they can send someone. Also hoping they're still willing to mask.

There's a massive food recall (including Cheerios, how I found out) yet the only news article I can find about it is on People dot com. What is going on?

Chronic migraine alone doesn’t explain fatigue—mood and sleep do.

Thinking of all the chronically ill and disabled people being grabbed off the streets and denied their medications. This is what happens.

Fuck ICE.

I'm not sure. Are the conditions in Denver bad? They haven't mentioned it 94 times.

Besides being taken over by fascists, every social media site is getting more and more invasive of our privacy. I'm sure it's on purpose but it's frustrating for those of us who are socially isolated.

Who is deleting Tiktok? Those new Terms seem awful.

Not the most important thing today but I assume this live broadcast of the guy free climbing a skyscraper is really on a 5-10 second delay. Because....

Not that I'm watching anyway.

Do I know anyone who experiences bad health anxiety and intrusive thoughts? Who might know of resources? If you want to chat, I'd prefer DM. I can tell you what I've gotten for support/info so far.

The bill is now headed to the Senate for a vote before the Jan. 30th deadline.

Thank you to everyone who called their members to urge them to support telehealth extensions for Medicare. You can still call your Senator and ask them to support the telehealth. www.congress.gov/members/find...

TELEHEALTH UPDATE: The House passed the Department of Health and Human Services’ funding bill yesterday, including telehealth extensions.
Under the proposal, Medicare telehealth flexibilities would be extended by 2 years, until Dec. 31, 2027. They are not permanent so there is still work to be done.

I've been having some pretty concerning symptoms. Between those and deciding how/when to seek care in the middle of peak respiratory virus season when everyone has given up caring about precautions... my anxiety is sky fucking high.
2026 has been pretty epically terrible. My body continues to fail in mysterious and painful ways. I'm still here. I just don't have much to say.
