@iamcardib Absolutely. The worst. About to host my monthly Twitter #MigraineChat if you want to join us? Just kidding, I know you have better things to do, but hope you get relief soon! 💜
Beth Morton @beth_morton
Hello everyone! Welcome to #MigraineChat! Thanks for being here today. I hope you’re doing as well as possible. If you haven’t before, take a quick moment to review the chat tips & guidelines: https://t.co/Wuemu2Ihop
Beth Morton @beth_morton
Two tips: (1) I’ll start each question w/Q1, Q2, etc. Remember to start your corresponding reply w/A1, A2, etc. (or quote tweet). (2) Always include the #MigraineChat hashtag! It makes following the conversation easier & ensures your tweets make the transcript.

Who is joining #MigraineChat today? If you want, introduce yourself in a way you are comfortable. I’m Beth. My birthday is in a couple days, so I’m selfishly using this to virtually celebrate with you all. #MigraineChat Party Time!!

Shout out to @fabriKatie for the idea of less formal, social #MigraineChat!

Q1. You’ve been given keys to a private jet! Where are you throwing your Spring Fling? #MigraineChat https://t.co/X57T9EjAf4
Beth Morton @beth_morton
A1. I’m going all out and taking you all to Tahiti. We’re staying in a fancy all-inclusive resort in those over the water bungalows. And someone else is paying for it all. No #migraine attacks allowed, of course! #MigraineChat
Democracy Over Demagogues @freeandclear1
@beth_morton AI #migrainechat I just went to Santa Fe where I lived 10 years during the 70's. I flew from sea level to 7000 feet altitude and back in 3 days and have been sick with migraine ever since. For my spring fling I'm going back to Santa Fe for a few years.
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@freeandclear1 Travel is so rough for migraine. Santa Fe sounds like a lovely place to spend some time! #MigraineChat
Democracy Over Demagogues @freeandclear1
@beth_morton I had a hot stone treatment at a spa with ice cold stones on my head and neck, hot everywhere else. It was very interesting. #MigraineChat.
Beth Morton @beth_morton
Q2. What are you wearing to the Spring Fling? Are you dressing comfy or getting glammed up? Tell us about your outfit. #MigraineChat https://t.co/M4IUoUn3BP

Beth Morton @beth_morton
A2. Well, I supposed if I’m sticking with the tropical party vacation theme, I’m wearing the comfiest resort-type clothes/#migraine-friendly outfits possible. Anything flowy and light. Big sun hat and dark shades! As opposed to my usual yoga pants and sweatshirt. #MigraineChat
Democracy Over Demagogues @freeandclear1
@winedarkme @beth_morton Shade Hats that don't fit head too tightly & stay on in the wind. Migraine glasses to go over RX glasses, one pair for fluorescent lighting indoors, another for sunlight. Masks for my nose and mouth in case someone is wearing perfume. Flowy comfy goddess clothing. #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@fabriKatie I see a new trend forming on the runways of fashion week. #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@fabriKatie Why not!! 🌸🌺🌸 #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@winedarkme We all definitely seem to be craving a tropical getaway!! #MigraineChat
Democracy Over Demagogues @freeandclear1
@Alexandria_SZ @winedarkme @beth_morton Oh if only the world were like #Migrainechat buddies !
Democracy Over Demagogues @freeandclear1
@Alexandria_SZ @beth_morton Order room service! #MigraineChat.
Beth Morton @beth_morton
Q3. What’s your go-to party food? Do you have a #migraine-friendly recipe you can share? Or is there a fantasy trigger-food you want to indulge in? #MigraineChat https://t.co/i7hUQKiPW8

@Alexandria_SZ And since we're already dressed for it! Free yoga classes and massage! #migrainechat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
I have a fair number of food triggers, not only for #migraine, but IBS. I just want to be able to eat all the things. Truthfully, travel and parties are *hard* because of this. #MigraineChat

@beth_morton Q3 #Migrainechat I'd have a personal chef prepare a personal menu of all healthy non-triggering delicious meals that I don't have to think about and are ready at regular times of day!
Beth Morton @beth_morton
A3. My go-to snacks: I make my own salsa (and nachos). I’ve found a locally made hummus I could swim in. And I’m trying new things by @thedizzycook to add some variety back in without adding triggers. #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@freeandclear1 Oh, yes, this. I want this full-time!! #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
Q4. Time to boogie. You’re feeling great tonight! What three songs would you request to be added to the party playlist? #MigraineChat https://t.co/oFIqO51JWn
Democracy Over Demagogues @freeandclear1
@beth_morton Let's have everyday be "spring fling!" #migrainechat.
Democracy Over Demagogues @freeandclear1
@Alexandria_SZ and someone else to do the cooking unless you prefer to. #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@fabriKatie Really? That sounds... interesting!?! 😁 #MigraineChat
Dr. Alexandria Szeman: Award-Winning Author @Alexandria_SZ
And all room service foods, meals, and drinks are made my a #migraine-conscious and -friendly chef and kitchen staff who take care of us as if they know us and care about us. (I know, really deep end fantasy...) #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
A4. Well, finding out @iamcardib is a fellow #migraine warrior, I’d see if she wants to come party with us! Live music beats a playlist any day. #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
Q5. You meet new friends at the party. Tell them something about yourself they (we) might not know, but you’d like to share! (A.k.a., your small talk or Jeopardy factoid!) #MigraineChat https://t.co/scmJVGDEn1
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@anna_fearon Yesss! Me too. Or really, anytime. #MigraineChat

@beth_morton @iamcardib A4-I have new hearing aids and also phonophobia- life is strange. I like silence mostly. #MigraineChat
Dr. Alexandria Szeman: Award-Winning Author @Alexandria_SZ
A4: Probably showing my age here, but my playlist would include these singers: Adele, The National, Bon Iver, Joan Baez, The Traveling Wilburys. I'd prefer background music so all of us #migraine warriors can visit all night if we want to #MigraineChat

I didn’t prepare anything in advance, so.... I once hiked through a field of bulls around an active volcano and lived to tell about it. I desperately want to visit a sad little castle in Scotland called Morton Castle (well, I want to see all of Scotland, really). #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@anna_fearon Hi Anna, thanks for being here with us today! Normally we have a more informational topic, but today’s is kind of a fun break from that. #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
@Alexandria_SZ Love, love, love. #MigraineChat
Beth Morton @beth_morton
Q6. You’re giving out #migraine-friendly party bags. What three items would you want to include to share with friends? (It’s okay to recommend specific items.) #MigraineChat https://t.co/bLrPgW5bZ8
Dr. Alexandria Szeman: Award-Winning Author @Alexandria_SZ
@anna_fearon @beth_morton I think there have been some informal articles going around. Some #migraine warriors prefer salty foods before an attack, some prefer sweet. I crave dark chocolate so now I have an excuse to keep it around (and indulge 😉) #MigraineChat

@fabriKatie @beth_morton I wish I could visit you for a spring fling. I've never been to England and probably never will #MigraineChat.
Beth Morton @beth_morton
Sooo many things, but I’d give you all a pair of #migraine glasses to help with photophobia, some noise cancelling headphones (I splurged on Bose wireless and love them) and maybe ice pack/hat of some sort (I’ve yet to find one I love). #MigraineChat

A6: a Manta sleep mask, an ice pack, and a pair of earplugs. #MigraineChat
Dr. Alexandria Szeman: Award-Winning Author @Alexandria_SZ
A6: My #migraine-friendly party bags for the #MigraineChat spring fling would include Migrastil or Aromata portable essential oil aromatherapy roll-ons, a SaksyThyme cherry-pit filled, organic cotton-covered heating/cooling pad, and a bottle of methylcobalamin vitamin B12
