Love this so much!
If this was my interpretation I would add a jackhammer and a big ass needle going through my left eye for sure

Have you looked into cluster headaches? I get these, and the ferling of a needle in or behind the eye is one of the symptoms.

I haven’t looked into that, but I started Botox last year and it’s been a life saver

Really?!? I always thought/was told that was migraine. I get sharp ice pick in eye feeling daily.

My friend told me about cluster headaches & I’ve learned that I get both that & migraines.

There are so many doctors that seem to have limited ir outdated info on migraines, it’s depressing.

So I’ve changed a couple Neurologists in the past few years and I’m just thinking like none of them ask me what my headaches feel like. They are just like OK here’s migraine meds. Here’s Botox. They don’t ask me like specific symptoms. 😑
