Sick of Being Sick

I am a long time migraine sufferer. I thought I had them under control, but the past few weeks have been absolute hell on my head! I've recently heard barometric pressure can contribute to migraines. I think I have to agree. I have changed my diet, make sure I get enough sleep, try to avoid stress, all these precautions and I am still getting terrible migraines. The one I have currently has lasted 3 days. This is not my worst nor is it my longest migraine. The worst one I ever had was back in October and it lasted 3 weeks! That one turned out to be related to my thyroid as well as my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Once I had those diagnoses I acted accordingly and was doing OK up until about the end of February. I'm home from work today and I really don't like missing so much work! I have a delivery I'm supposed to make today and that may not happen if I don't go in.
On the upside, my home based business is doing well right now and I plan to keep the momentum going. My goal is to be a sales director by September! I've got it all planned out. I have challenged my friend to do it with me! I broke it down so it is not impossible. As long as my headaches cooperate, I can do this!
I'm beginning to wonder if I'm getting the flu. I've felt fluish for a couple weeks, too. I don't want the flu. I haven't had a flu shot. My beef with those is they can make you sick if it's the wrong strain and there are so many different types of flu out there that a shot of one will not be effective against another strain. I will just trust in my immune system on this one. ;)
