Short update (oh wow I get to use my uber-angsty icon again!!)

[flyboy_fox]

Hi guys.

Sorry if I haven't been around as much as usual or if I haven't been commenting as much on your LJ entries.

Had another migraine last night. That's three in the space of five days... pretty much every other day. As a result, I haven't been on the computer as much.

If this keeps up, I guess I'll have to make an appointment at the doctor, but I really don't know what they can do. No one really knows what causes migraine or how to effectively treat it. My mom did suggest that, due to some other stuff, I might be anemic. It might be worth getting a blood test done too, in that case.

I dunno. I know it's not serious, but damn I'm tired. One migraine is enough to wipe me out, but three in the space of 5 days?

Also, this pretty much kills any hope of doing NaNoWriMo this year. I'm already five days behind.

And my brother just called to say "Something's wrong with Fox" (my cat, back in London). Apparently he has a huge lump on his neck and he won't let anyone touch him. Sounds to me like he got bitten again and has another infected abscess. The question is whether my brother has the where-with-all to arrange a veterinary appointment and get him seen to. I'm worried. I love my Foxie ;_;

And my mom is thinking of moving back to London. She's not earning enough out here and she feels she made a huge mistake. I don't want to go back to London, but what say do I have...?

All in all, not too happy right now, but heh.

Oh, wow, Jai. There's so much going on for you right now, and I wish I could help so badly. I don't have any experience treating migraines, moving around a lot, or having a sick friend in the hands of an absolute fool. Perhaps the only thing I can help you with is just being here to talk when it all gets to be too much. The same goes for everyone here, I believe.
Stay strong, Jai.

Thanks. Sometimes just having friends helps a whoooole lot ^^ And it could be worse. Migraines are just tiring me out and making everything else feel so much bigger ^^;

[sphix.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Even multiplying the big things like a small number like 2 doubles the big stuff. I know that feeling.

Yikes...don't really know what I can say or do, sorry to hear you've got so many problems right now though, all of which I cannot advise on :(

[flyboy-fox.livejournal.com]

Eh, it's okay Leon ^^ Thanks for the concern.

Ugh... yeoch. ;_;
It might be worth it to go to the doctors... I know that most people hate it and all, but... You never know. They may be able to help.
In the meantime, just get plenty of rest. I for one really appreciate you taking the time to come on and tell us where you've been, what with you feeling so crappy and all.
Maybe you're stressed about NaNoWriMo too. Just a thought, but really, try just to rest up.

As for the moving back thing... I know that's probably gonna be hard to take in. It sounds like you've adjusted to this new lifestyle well, but maybe things will start lookin' up after a while.
And I'm totally empathizing with you on your cat. When we left my Freddie in the care of my Uncle and he mysteriously disappeared, I couldn't stop crying until we found him hiding in my Uncle's house. So I hope he gets better soon. I'm sure you love your cat just as much as I love my Fred. ^^

Lastly, just feel better, kay? If you ever need to talk, feel free to take it out on LJ or e-mail me. I check my e-mail at least four times a day on the weekdays. I'll catch it and reply as soon as I get my hands on it. ^^
*HUGS*

Aww, thanks Chase, it means a lot ^_^ My dad is (hopefully x.x) gonna take Fox to the vet tomorrow, so... I should know a bit more about how he's doing, tonight. I hope it's nothing too serious, because I lost my other cat, Fara, not that long ago ._. And it would be AWFUL if anything happened to Fox while I'm so far away. But hopefully it's just an infection that can be treated with antibiotics and he'll be okay in no time ^_^

Well even though it's mainly speculative, Migraines seem to be caused a lot through worrying and depressions..
Just stress etc. that seems to bring them up more often, at least that has been the case to a RL friend of mine who has them rather often.

Even more so with someone I knew at school years ago, though she had it much worse and fainted every time she had a migraine attack, even after regaining consciousness it went on for hours if not the rest of the day.
But same as before, she also was a reall worryer and easily stressed out over a lot of things, though she also had a lot of trouble sleeping.
Lack of sleep may definately be one of the causes, but I think the stress helps out a good deal too..

Try relaxing and putting off your mind of things when such things tend to happen a lot..
I'm sorry you may head back again too though..but perhaps seeing fox again can destress as well.

[flyboy-fox.livejournal.com]

That's true ^_^ At least if I have to go back to London I'll get to be with Fox again.
Thanks, Helios.

I'm sorry, Jai... between your migraines and your cat and your mom, you must have a lot on your mind...

I hope everything works out, big bro :) *big huggles*
