migraine

Migraine is a debilitating condition characterized by moderate to severe headaches, and nausea, about 3 times more common in women than in men.
The typical migraine headache is unilateral pain (affecting one half of the head) and pulsating in nature, lasting from 4 to 72 hours; symptoms include nausea, vomiting, photophobia (increased sensitivity to light), phonophobia (increased sensitivity to sound), and is aggravated by routine activity. Approximately one-third of people who suffer from migraine headaches perceive an aura—unusual visual, olfactory, or other sensory experiences that are a sign that the migraine will soon occur.


Symptom:

• Throbbing or pulsating headache on one side of your head.
• Moderate to severe headache intensity.
• Headache that gets worse with routinephysical activity.
• Nausea, vomiting, or both.
• Sensitivity to light and noise, and sometimes smells.

Treatment:

Drug treatment for migraine headaches can relieve the pain and symptoms of a migraine attack and prevent further migraine attacks.

Migraines can be treated with two approaches: abortive and preventive.

Abortive: The goal of abortive therapy is to stop it once it starts. The prescribed medications stop a migraine when you one coming or once it has begun and may be taken as needed. Abortive medications can be administered by self-injection, by mouth, or by nasal spray. These forms of medication are especially useful for people who have nausea or vomiting related to their migraine, and they work quickly.

Abortive drugs include the triptans, which specifically target serotonin. They are all very similar in their action and chemical structure. The triptans are used only to treat headache and do not relieve pain from back problems, arthritis, menstruation, or other conditions. People with certain medical conditions should not take these medications.

• Almotriptan (Axert)

• Eletriptan (Relpax)
• Frovatriptan (Frova)
• Naratriptan (Amerge, Naramig)
• Rizatriptan (Maxalt)
• Sumatriptan (Imitrex, Treximet)
• Zolmitriptan (Zomig)

The following drugs are also used for treatment.

• Acetaminophen-isometheptene-dichloralphenazone (Midrin)
• Dihydroergotamine (D.H.E. 45 Injection, Migranal Nasal Spray)
• Ergotamine tartrate (Cafergot)  
• Over- the-counter medications such as Advil Migraine (containing ibuprofen), Excedrin Migraine (containing aspirin, acetaminophen, caffeine), and Motrin Migraine Pain (containing ibuprofen)

The following drugs are mainly used for nausea related to migraine headaches in addition to migraine treatment: 

• Metoclopramide (Reglan)
• Prochlorperazine (Compazine)
  Promethazine (Phenergan)

Some drugs are used for headache pain but are not specific for migraines. These include analgesics, narcotics, and barbiturates. Since they can be habit forming, they are less desirable than specific headache drugs listed above. These drugs should be used primarily as a "backup" for the occasions when a specific drug does not work.

Preventive: This type of treatment is considered if migraines occur frequently, typically more than one migraine per week, or if migraine symptoms are severe. The goal is to lessen the frequency and severity of the migraine attacks. Medication to prevent a migraine can be taken daily. Preventive treatment medications include the following:

• Medications used to treat high blood pressure: beta-blockers (propranolol [Inderal], timolol), calcium channel blockers (verapamil [Covera])
• Antidepressants: amitriptyline (Elavil), nortriptyline (Pamelor)
• Antiseizure medications: gabapentin (Neurontin), topiramate (Topamax), valproic acid (Depakote)

Some nontraditional supplement treatments for migraine prevention include butterbur, coenzyme Q10, and feverfew. Evidence has been inconclusive and studies have produced mixed findings.  

~ Cameron Highlands ~

akhir nye sampai gak rezeki aku nk g cameron highlands. saje nk bwk ank jln2. kesian kt diorg, terperap dlm umh je..
ktorg gerak g sane ari isnin petang. tp ari ahad tu ktorg gerak gu KL dulu. request dari husband aku, ajak tido umah mertua. so, aku ikut je la..
sebelum gerak gi cameron tu, ktorg ade la discuss sket nk ikut jln mane. aku da suggest Simpang Pulai, sbb org kata jalan tu x de la bengkang bengkok sangat mcm ular kene palu. jln pn besar.. tp d sebab kn suggestion aku x mendapat tempat d hati, terpakse la ikut jln Tapah.
bengkang bengkok giler! aku yg x pernah2 mabuk naik kete pn terase mcm mabuk je.. nasib baik x muntah. cuma Farish je muntah. merasa gak la aku mandi muntah anak aku yg sorg tu. lenjun belakang aku..
keadaan ms tu pn mcm da x terkawal. malam, gelap! jalan sempit sgt. tawakal jelah. Alhamdulillah, sampai gak akhirnye kt Tanah Rata..
masuk je dlm umah tu, lepas settle kn ank2, aku pn kene la mandi. takkan nk tido ngn muntah kowt kn..
punye la sejuk! mandi ngn air suam pn x terasa suam nye.. cepat sgt sejuk nye!
ni antara pic2 ktorg kt sane..

punah harapan ku. hancur luluh hati ku..

kalo x ari ni, sabtu, 15-01-2011, kami 1 family da gerak g cameron highlands. mmg aku teringin nk kesane da lame, cume x berkesempatan. yelah, masalah transport, belanja, keadaan ank2.. sume kne amek kire. tp bile da ade chance, ade plak manusia yg x berhati perut nih buat onar..

aku mmg cukup lame bersabar ngn manusia nih sejak aku mula kawen lg, tp aku pendam kn.. bg aku ape guna nk melawan sbb dia org tua. ape2 pn org akn nmpk kesalahan aku gak. dan mungkin aku akn di cop BIADAP! tu yg aku x suke. jd aku lebih ske amek sikap berdiam diri. tp makin aku diam, dia nih makin melampau! sikit2 perkara yg dia onar kn utk menyakit kn hati aku. mcm nih aku bley hilang sabar!
kerana dia yg bersikap "BIAR PAPA, ASAL BERGAYA", kami 1 family jd mangsa. konon nye kwn dia dtg dr indonesia, manu nk bwk keluar pakai kereta honda buruk tu, sesah gak kete yg laki aku pakai. yg aku bengang sgt tu, nape la msti tunjuk yg awk tu berada sdg kn awk tu x de ape2? nape msti berlagak??
kalo org tgk umh dia, org msti kata dia berduit sbb kt luar rumah je da ade 2 kete, x termasuk kete laki aku.1 honda, 1 lagi ssangyong. tp dua2 hampeh! seelok nye tolak masuk laut je, jd kn tukun tempat ikan2 main.. silap2 ikan pn x nk main kt tukun tu!!
nape tidak jual dua2, dan beli 1 kete yg baru? nape msti simpan dua kete tp 1 pn x berguna?? sbb nye, BERLAGAK! nk tunjuk yg awk tu KAYA tp sebenar nye awk tu PAPA! KA'AT REZEKI!!
kalo bercakap pasal org, nasihat org lain mcm la dia nih da cukup sempurna utk jd ahli syurga tp Allah je yg tau.
kuman seberang laut nampak, gajah depan mata, tuli!
aku x tau la bila dia nih akn terbuka hati utk berubah. bukan nye makin muda, this year 69 x silap aku tp hish.. kalo ikut2 kn hati mmg kne getah dia tu. geram nye aku!!!
biar, aku akn pasti kn 1 hari nnti, dia akn rasa jugak ape yg aku rasa skang nih. aku akn bg berganda2 perasaan itu. supaya jgn dia fikir, dia je ade hati, org lain x de hati dan perasaan..
tgk la nnti. masa tu, lu pikir la sendiri....

jangan nampak salah orang..

SI IBU CANTEK TUTUP, SI ANAK BERKEMBAN...

pic nih aku dapat dr facebook.. kalo korg tgk, ape korg nk bg pendapat..?

bkn la nk kte aku ni terlalu open sampai x tau nk knal halal ngn haram tp da lumra bg seorg manusia, x kn terlepas dr wat dosa. x kire la sme ade dosa tu kecik atau besar..

mcm2 komen yg bce dr page tu. baik yg negatif, mau pn yg positif.. tp biase la, kalo kuar bnde2 mcm ni, negatif jelah yg byk..

bg aku, bnde2 mcm ni kte x bley nk komen byk2. kalo  tuan pnye badan tu nk terima, x pe, kalo x nk? x ke kte gak yg sakit ati..?

diorg muda lg, so biar la diorg nk merasa pkai mcm tu.. ape salah nye.. bkn nye makdiorg yg pkai. kalo mak diorg, lain la citer.. nk judge diorg tu berdosa atau x, tu bkn keje kte! tu keje Allah.. Dia yg lebih tau.. yg nk kutuk belakang2 ni nk kire mcm mane plak? x dosa gak nme nye tu??

kalo kte sendiri perfect, ank branak kte baik, sedare mare kte bagus, x pe la kalo kte nk bg nasihat. ni diri sendiri pn x betol, nk kecoh2 pasal org lain pulak..

baik la jgn ckp byk sbb tu pn berdosa gak!!

jadi fikir2 kn laa...

al-kisah

perkenalan secara x sengaja oleh seorg kawan aku yg agk 'awww' di PV10..

bg aku ms tu dia seorg lelaki yg agk concern dgn keadaan aku dan sahabat aku yg mmg susah ttg wang ringgit. bkn b'mkne kami boros, tp hidup di KL, biase la, semua nye prlu kn duit.. dan kami pulak sentiase 'kering'!

satu ari tu, berlaku la satu pertengkaran antara aku dan seorg housemate, yg menuduh aku cube menikam belakang nye 

dan merampas boyfriend nye! alamak aii... 

bermula dari tu, byk dugaan aku terima. antar nye ade antara kawan2 aku yg mengaku yg asyraf ni da jnji nk kawen ngn dia la, aku ni syok sendiri la, family asyraf x restu hubungan kami la. macam2.. tp dgn kesabaran yg ade akhir nye, kami ke jinjang pelamin gak..

dan dikurniakan 2 org cahaya mata yg comel2 belaka. alhamdulillah...

kerenah anak-anak

Azie Nurfarisya.. anak aku yg sulung. skang nih berumur 1 tahun 4 bulan. da pandai berjalan. skang nih tgh menjinak2 kn diri nk berlari. becok nye mulut, riuh 1 rumah! ntah ape yg dia ckp, sape pn x paham..

Adzim Muhamad Farish.. anak aku yg ke-2. skang ni bru nk blaja merangkak. bile dia nmpk je kelibat kakak nye, bkn main seronok lg. terkekek2 ketawa tp nk wat mcm mane. kakak nye slalu wat x nmpk je.. tp bkn bermakne kakak nye x syg adik..

kerja oh kerja

ni pn berkaitan dgn ape yg aku post msg dlm fb kt kwn2 aku td laa.. ade yg tnye kalo login, bley kaye x? dan ade gak yg jwb, kalo dgn login je bley kaye, x de org miskin dlm dunia ni. then, rmai la suggest kt aku mcm2. antara nye, jual kuih la, jg ank org la.. ish, pendek kte, usaha sndri!
bkn aku x nk usaha. bkn aku nk bg byk alasan tp buat ms skang nih aku x mampu.. jual kuih? tgh sebok dok uli tepung, ank aku nangis. sudah nye, kering tepung aku tu dek kne haba panas matahari.. nk jg ank org? hai, ank sndri pn x terjaga, ni kn ank org.. kalo jd la ape2 kt ank2 org tu, ape la aku nk jwb ngn parent diorg. diorg msti x kn senyap pnye. msti jd pnjg lebar..
da byk job aku try apply. ade yg terima, ade gak yg wat senyap je.. yg terima, siap suroh dtg interview lg tp sume nye kt kl sdg kn aku kt teluk intan.. mcm mane nk g? sape nk jg ank2 aku?? kalo ikut kn ati, ms diorg call tu aku mmg seronok. yelah, nk d interview. untung2 dpt job tp mungkin x bkn rezeki aku kn..
kalo d pk2 balik, sampai bile la aku nk hidup mcm nih? ank2 makin membesar. simpanan x de. kesian kt diorg.. sbb tulah kalo bley aku nk pindah kl cepat. sekurang2 nye ade gak 2 3 job tgh tunggu aku tp.......
masalah rumah plak timbul. mane aku nk dok kalo aku pindah kl? kalo ikut kn ati mmg aku nk sewa bilik je tp ank2 aku mcm mane? sape k]nk jg? jgn kn nk gaji org jg ank aku, nk anta nursery pn aku x mampu..

bile keje, ade gaji. bile ade gaji, bley g shopping. mcm2 bley shopping. brg sndiri, brg ank2, brg rumah, pendek kata, mcm2 brg laa..

hurmm...

bodoh ke aku?

ari ni kwn aku ade anta msg dlm fb. pasal login2 dpt duit ni laa.. aku ni yg x berduit, sng la caye. than aku post la kt member2 aku yg lain.. nk tau ape yg aku dpt? negative feedback!
mula2 aku mmg sedih sbb aku rs diorg mcm x phm situasi aku skang. diorg ingt aku nk cpt kaya ngn cara yg senang. sebenarnye, tu bkn niat aku. aku cume nk test my luck. tp nmpk gaya nye, very bad.. x pe, aku x marak pn malah aku berterima kasih sbb diorg la aku sedar blk. kalo x, ntah mane2 alam da aku pegi..
thanks buddy! korg mmg yg terbaekk!!

betul ckp diorg. yg lebih mendapat keberkatan sekira nye kita usaha sendiri. rezeki kn ade kt mane2 je..

dgn ketekunan, insya-Allah kita pasti akan berjaya!!

ape masalah kau ngn anak2 aku??

kalo korg ade ank pn, korg msti sakit telinga dan bengang giler kn kalo ade org ngate ank2 korg.. serupa la mcm aku.
nnti aku citer..
ade la 1 ari tu, aku ngn suami bwk la ank2 ktorg nih g 1 umh yang x bape nk besar, dan x bape nk ramai penghuni dlm umh tu. sorg tua dan sorg lg x bape nk muda laa.. kire2 mcm nk ke arah tua gak laa..
dari ms perjalanan ktorg nk ke umh tu, ank2 ktorg ok je. merengek pn x.. tp bile sampai je, ank ktorg yg sulung tu mula wat perangai.. nk tau nape?
sbb yg x bape nk muda tu tibe2 je dtg terkam nk dukung ank aku. mau nye x terkejut bdk tu! lain kali approach la dlu pelan2.. lembut2 kn ati bdk tu dlu. ni x, main serbu je.. kalo org tua skali pn, tibe2 ade yg dtg terus peluk, x ke mkn penampar?? adoyai..
bile ank ktorg tu da start wat perangai, mmg susah laa.. semua bnde x kene. rs mcm nk blk time tu gak..
yg paling aku x ske, lepas beberapa ari kejadian tu, telinga aku ni di santap ngn ayat "Farisya tu PERAK".. PERAK ko kte ank aku?? ko phm x mksud PERAK tu hape?? ank Ku PERAK ke, ko yg PERAK sbb x prnh tgk ank aku?? mangkok tol laa!! cuba ko flash back blk ape yg ko wat sampai bley mendatang kn kePERAKan ank aku tu.. ternyata ko yg PERAK sebenar nye..
so, kpd manusia itu, better u behave yourself went you see my daughter after this. don't try to scare her again! if i heard any word PERAK or anything else that make me sick, i will slap u in front of everyone..
huh!!

bley je kalo nk marah anak aku asal kn kne dgn kesalahan diorg. aku pn x kesah, demi kebaikan diorg gak.. tapi kalo dah sampai pkai ayat yg menyakitkan telinga sdg kn kesalahan tu dr individu lain, mau kne lempang gak ngn aku..

dush! dush! dush!!

.. alahai MASALAH ..

hidup nih x lari dr masalah. x de org yang x de masalah. even orang giler pn ade masalah diorg sendiri. tp terpulang pd individu tulah sendiri mcm mane nk settle kn masalah diorg..

mcm aku. pn ade masalah. bley di kte kn byk gak laa.. 

contoh nye, masalah duit. tu biase bg aku. maklumla, org menganggur la kte kn.. nk harap kn gaji suami, mmg x cukup. tambah2 plak bile dok kt kl. gaji dia potong duit kete, nafkah ank2, ulang alik blk kmpg. pendek kte mmg byk la nk pkai duit..

bkn aku x nk cri keje, da byk aku apply. yg panggil interview pn byk gak cume blm ade rezeki lg kot sbb biase nye aku x dpt pegi. sbb masalah kenderaan. sape nk bwk aku? aku bkn nye expert sgt jln2 kt kl tu..

yang aku tau, jln nk g umh aku, umh mertua aku, gi kedai, aku tau la.. kalo nk hrp g umh sedare mare aku, mau sesat..

ntah la.. kalo aku keje pn, sape nk jg ank aku? masalah gak tu.. nk harap mak aku? dia sendiri pn da x larat.. ank2 aku buas2. bdk nk membesar..

nk anta kt mertua aku?? mmg x laa!!

ape yang aku harap skang, cepat2 la dpt keje. nk jugak merase pkai duit sendiri. bile tgk buku bank tu, bangga je rs. ni x, kalo nk ngadap mesin ATM tu, bkn je aku malu ngn dr sendiri, ngn mesin ATM tu pn aku malu!!

:(

setiap masalah mesti ade jalan penyelesaian. dan jika mahukan jalan penyelesaian tu, kne la mendekatkan diri dengan Yang Maha Esa. jangan sesekali lupakan-Nya. insya-Allah, Dia akan membantu..
