Just want to rant to people who get it.
Post Body

I've had chronic migraines for almost 20 years now. I had pretty good luck with ajovy injections with Sumatriptan for breakthroughs, however I decided with my doctor that when I got pregnant I would go off the ajovy because there just isn't evidence one way or the other as far as safety. The hope was that my migraines would be better during pregnancy.

I have had a migraine every single day since I've been pregnant (24 weeks now) and I'm about to lose it. Per my obgyn I can take triptans, but they just don't last the way I need. Other than the migraines, my pregnancy has been fine. Me and the baby are otherwise healthy.

My main rant is that when people ask how I am, I either lie and say fine or tell the truth, which is that I'm miserable because of the migraines. A typical response is, "just wait till the baby is here." Gee thanks that's really fucking helpful. It doesn't even make sense. I'm not miserable because of the pregnancy, I'm miserable because of the migraines.

Anyone is welcome to share in my rage. It is much appreciated.
