First game of the season and already an injury

More of an ailment, than an Injury, but yeah. Guess that means more  Romeo and Nesmith which is absolutely fine with me. Team has too many shooting guards and half of them can’t shoot.

Migraines suck.  I get 4-5 a week.

Ex wife got them regularly. I didn't realize how bad they can be until I started getting them about 2 years ago. I should have been more empathetic and sympathetic to what she was going through. Migraine pain can be debilitating.

No, the trouble already started BEFORE the regular season, with covid for Brown and Horford. I'm sure the hospital Celtics are just getting started.

Mine started in my 30's and I used to be pretty much done for the day when I got one - which thankfully wasn't frequent -- sometimes monthly, sometimes once every 2-3 months.   Now, also thankfully, I get the "aura" that lasts for about 20-30 minutes but where it used to then turn into a nasty headache, it doesn't anymore. The aura is pretty much it - I can go about my business after it's done.  Just feel a little spacey. 

BTW the aura I get is blinding and bizarre, no pain but really strange.

Horford and Brown with covid, Pritchard with a broken nose, Richardson with migraines, yeah, hospital Celtics are in mid-season form.

I get the same type of migraines.  I've never had a headache with it.  They tend to happen when I've been training exceptionally hard for a race or triathlon but not while I'm actually training.  My vision will kind of go away for 20-30 minutes.  I'll see strange lights and it's kind of impossible to see what I'm trying to look at.  I was worried I was having a stroke or something the first few times.  I went to to an optometrist thinking maybe I was having a pressure issue and he was pretty certain I was having migraines with no headache.  It really is bizarre.

Mine are such that I have to go into the bedroom, make it completely dark, and put an icepack Over my eyes. A couple times, after having it for more than a day, I went to the doctor's office and had to get a shot of something because my blood pressure was through the roof, not at its normal 110/70. I got one of those black eye masks that you refrigerate and wear that now when I get them.

the bolded is exactly what I have to do when I have had them.  I used to think they were sinus headaches, but eventually I learned more about migraines and realized that they were too intense to be a sinus headache. 

I have the same exact sensitivity to light as well.  I need to lay down and it needs to be dark.  It feels like my eyes, sinuses, and head are locked in a vice.

Wow, that's a lot! At my worst I was about one a week. Buying a memory foam pillow and doing neck exercises helped a lot, but still get them when I'm quite stressed. Painkillers were often a crutch

I was taught the neck exercises by a chiropractor.  I thought they were helping for a little while but it didn't turn out to be a solution for me.  The reasoning behind them makes sense though.

Exactly what I get.  I'll get the darkening vision around the edges with spots of light starting to appear, and then I know that a killer headache is about 30 minutes away.  First time I got an aura from a migraine, I went to the ER as I thought I was having a stroke because of my vision darkening and everything. Was really scary.
