Photoset, what a traumatic time. A good thing you were both with M-i-L, and that you knew what to do, and did it, so she knew that everything which could be done, was.
ITG, that happened to a friend of mine who used to have severe migraines, usually in association with periods. She went on the pill, hoping it would improve matters, but it made the migraines worse. If it's any consolation, the migraines stopped post-menopause.

Just a decade or so to go then, Columbia :/ Migraines have always been associated with my cycle but have been much worse - longer, more sever and more often - since trying the pill.

Hopefully it’ll help ITG, I am so much less hormonal since switching to the mini pill, it’s been great.
Went for a run with my friend and her husband at lunchtime, it’s cold out there

Hugs to all in need.
ITG - everyone is different so give it a try, I developed migraines with combined pill, so was switched to mini pill. Not had a period or migraine since (nearly 2 years). I do get some teenage spots now and then, which I blame on the pill as I didn't get many before. I have gained a tiny bit of weight too but honestly that is more likely my lower mileage and fondness for junk food! I hope it helps for you.

I'll take the weight gain over the migraines and cramps (see moniker)

What a shock Photoset and very sad for you all too. Hope the proposal goes well.
Feeling sorry for myself as full of head cold. Hoping it sods off quickly.

((())) Photoset how awful; but glad for the proposal silver lining
Had the conversation, which was less awful than anticipated but frankly can’t remember what we said as rest of day been pigging nightmare with mother of my oldest friend being referred to us, and getting home to hear very dear friend of hubby’s was found dead in bed by his wife this morning. 2018 has been unkind.
ION I am on mini-pill since my shenanigans and it’s suiting me fine thus far. So much so am intending to cancel my gynae appointment for the third coil attempt - what’s the point? But as mini-pill less effective contraceptively I can still make hubby get the snip 😈
