Migraine Mini: Tally Up, Tally Ho
Most of my friends who happen to also be migraineurs have been advised at some point to keep a migraine diary. Migraine diaries are helpful tools for sussing out triggers and tallying up exactly how many days per month we are sick. If I didn't keep track in my Bullet Journal, I wouldn't have known that distance teaching during April 2020 resulted in a spike from 2 to 12 migraine days in just one month's time! My migraine diary also helped me determine which foods I can (and cannot) safely eat. It's tedious, but I can't imagine trying to figure it out without some kind of reference point.

This series is as much about the issues of drug prices as it is about my life with migraine disease. My maintenance medication has a sticker price of $1200 per month. Why do they cost so much? I assume they are made of gold… so I crafted these little golden pills. So each of 30 completed works of art costs as much as one day of my migraine meds: $40
