If anyone wants the magical Excel function, let me know. It's a combination of =IF and a custom VBA formula.

I've actually got prescriptions for both 1000 mg ibuprofen tablets (takes the edge off the various accompanying muscle aches) and Relpax, which normally works a treat.
I don't get auras, so I can usually work through a mild migraine. (There really is such a thing, although I wouldn't call it pleasant.) I just ask my coworkers to stop existing so loudly and everything's fine.
Once a year or so I get one so bad that the meds won't touch it and my cognitive functioning is more impaired than usual.
So I stay home and take homeopathic full-strength Coke and Fritos (for the caffeine and salt) and use my therapeutic frozen peas in combination with my lavendar-infused eyemask.
Eventually, the barometric pressure changes or my hormones return to normal and I can function. Neurology tests have ruled out it being much else than pulling a bad lot in the genetic lottery.
