Silence migraine

I had a bad headache since this morning, Panadol doesn’t seem to help. Finally, I gave up and went to the nearest clinic. I told him my symptoms with the pain occur on one side of the head and worsen by physical activity like sitting down.

He didn’t tell me that I have migraine until I got my prescription, migraine painkiller with 100mg of caffeine. I googled migraine and caffeine and only know that caffeine is added to migraine painkiller to treat migraine.

Finally, I realize that I have been having migraine since a year ago. All my questions have finally answered; I wonder why that I will have migraine in the afternoon if I don’t take my daily morning coffee. Migraine has been with me silently but only today I discovered that I have migraine and have been using caffeine to keep me away from the migraine symptom. Migraine can be scary and there is no cure and only painkiller will help to reduce the pain.

Everyone is cutting down on caffeine and I m the one who cant live without caffeine! Friend asked can it be STRESS? I thought I can take in more stress but my body is telling me I cant.
Starting from today I really need to watch out my caffeine intake! All this while, I have the perception that caffeine is bad and will cause headache and it is only true that the most common symptom of caffeine withdrawal is headache.

“No cure, doctor's advice is rest well and drinks a lot of water”

In one word, how would you describe 2009?

In one word, how would you describe 2009?
For me, the word "educational" will the best word to describe year 2009. Last year, it was major turn in my technical skill, start anew by picking up ABAP and venture into SAP.

For year 2010, I only want one word, that will be "rewarding" ...
