In June 2024 I suddenly started experiencing headaches and migraines with unusual and intense pain patterns. At first, I didn’t think too much of them, but after a couple of weeks of this happening just about every day, I had decided to start seeing some doctors about it. Nothing concrete was found at first, and eventually it was recommended that I have an MRI scan.
Thankfully, the scan was normal, and I was merely diagnosed with a new presentation of normal migraines which behave quite differently than when I was younger, which is apparently a thing that just happens sometimes. It’s a bit annoying when your medical diagnosis functionally boils down to “sucks to be you,” but such is life sometimes. At least I was lucky enough to have the reassurance that everything was fine and some helpful advice on how to deal with them.
