Raingem.com has been up for one year exactly.
On January 4th, 2008 yours truly set out to post at least one article a day for one year. The articles had to be about migraine or at least migraine-related.
Here are the results of this undertaking:
396 articles published, including this one. Considering that each article is at least 250 words, it's 99000 words. Some of them are way longer so 100000 words is not an impossibility here.
At least 250 different kitten pictures have been posted, courtesy of Google Image Search :P .
Yours truly started the last year with a migraine every 2-3 days. Almost a chronic migraine, just not quite. The tension headaches compensated on the alternative days rather nicely though.
As it stands now, the last recorded migraine was 22 days ago. Yours truly has gone through the holidays without a single attack, despite a fair share of over-indulgences and all the stress.
One thing about writing on a certain subject for long enough - one learns a lot. The amount of useful information on this site could probably fill a book, or a couple. Hopefully my gentle readers have found the articles helpful for them as well.
Some experiments were conducted, a few of them recorded here. The ketogenic-inspired diet was a particular success as far as migraine prevention goes.
Now yours truly has to find something else to write about. Several subjects are of particular interest. Some would help with the next stage - what to do when one is no longer in almost constant pain. Some are of more practical nature - less pain means more time, might as well make good use of it. Yours truly will need to vegetate on that.
This site is going to continue - the Migraine has no cure, after all - but at a less crazy pace.
Will keep you posted and thank you for your support, my gentle readers.
Cheers,
Rain :P

Congratulations!
HI RainGem, Your site has been a well spring of information. Thank you. Can you please share your regimen that has helped your migraines. Mine have gone haywire (perimenopause) and I've tried lots of stuff to no avail and I'm still willing to try new stuff. Thank you. Carolyn

Congratulations that is really awesome here is to the next year and the next and the next
Thank you everybody :) . I haven't looked at the site for this last couple of weeks on purpose - hard not to write when you have been writing non-stop for a year straight... Going cold turkey is not fun, I'll tell you that much.
I think I almost zeroed in on my next project, tell you all in a bit later, some preparations need to be made first.
I'll start writing an article about my current regimen in the meanwhile, hopefully post it soon.
Here's hoping everyone is entering the New Year full of hope and absent of pain :) .
Cheers,
Rain
Wow Rain! Congrats! I have had a rather crazy pace myself in the past few weeks, adding a part-time job into my mix, so haven't been reading blogs as much or posting either. so I hadn't seen this. I'm so glad you've found some success lately, and you know how much I've loved your site, your info, and your wacky sense of humor! (Which is not unlike my own.)

hello migraine sufferers of great britain, my name is johnny of reading, pa, usa and i have suffered migraines since 1983. i am writing to tell you about my current regimen. it is not common and sounds strange but it works. dilaudid 8mg and tylenol/codeine #4, both together, 4 times a day. it took me 25 years to find this great combo. it will be difficult to find a doctor who will prescribe it but if you do it will be well worth it. try it, you'll like it. sincerely, your friend in america, johnny

Thank you all (even the Viagra people; no, especially them). Sorry for not responding in a while. I'll try to do better :P
According to a $600,000 study paid for by the Health
Research Council of New Zealand, plenty of women are blaming health care providers for giving their husbands Viagra without considering its effects on them. cialis canada
The Viagra effect might be thought of as some minor problem that affects older men. Or possibly those women who live with or date older men perhaps. However, the Viagra effect can in fact lead to problems for the larger society. Both Instapundit and Tyler Cowen point to this piece. http://www.8pills.com
My congratulations! Keep up good work, RainGem!

Erectile Dysfunction FAQ's
Impotence, or penile erectile dysfunction, in men is not as rare as one would think it is.
In fact, one out of ten men around the world is affected by this condition. It is not exclusive to old men either. Impotence is caused not just by physical factors,
but mental factors as well.
Exercising on a regular basis and eating healthy food will increase your ability to sustain prolonged physical effort and we all know that sex is effort.
Smoking, frequently drinking large quantities of alcohol, taking recreational drugs and lack of exercising will sap your stamina and also slow down the flow of blood.
Penis exercises can be used for maintaining fitness, preventing or controlling premature ejaculation and increasing the length and girth of the penis.
by penis enlargement pills you can overcome these problems and not only that you can also enlarge, extend also to strengthen your penis and premature ejaculation will not exist anymore for you.
