As we all know, Migraine is a sensory system disturbance which can affect any area of our sensory system at any particular time.
Its really strange as this week I feel like I have really heavy weighted feet. When I stand still my sensation of touch through my feet seems super strong, it almost feels like my feet are somehow merged into the ground… its bloody weird!
This does not bode well with the usual unsteadiness feeling I get when standing still, it makes the whole experience that much more intense. Ive also noticed this week that I have an increase of rocking and also the illusion that objects are moving around me.
When I was sat on the plane from London the other day, waiting to taxi from the airport gate, I nearly had a full blown panic attack. My sense of rocking was so intense my brain actually believed that the whole world was going to turn upside down. With all this internal increased motion sensitivity it throws my whole perception of where things are in relation to each other out of whack! and this has increased the anxiety ten fold.
I think my brain is highly irritated from all the travel ive done over the last week, as well as the increase in alcohol consumption and lack of sleep. I am now rigidly sticking to the lifestyle measures as advised by Dr Silver. Also giving up alcohol and chocolate and limiting decaff tea to max 3 per day. I really am excited about seeing him at the end of July now
Thanks for listening to my crap haha… this is good for me as a reference when I look back in the future anyway, so kinda treat this website like a diary at times
