Today, I was diagnosed with migraines. Any loud sounds or bright lights make it worse. I'm the drummer for a heavy metal band, so I now have to choose between really bad migraines or a career. FML

You should always out your health before most things! Remember that you only have one body, while you can have multiple careers. Fyl though, and I hope the medications are effective :) I have heard that migraines are horrible to say the last, so good luck in the future, always a lot of options left.

That sucks, man. I was the lead guitar player for a metal band and right after we got signed, my fingers started cramping up every time I tried to do a solo. Turns out I have carpel tunnel syndrome. There went my career and my dreams. I hope you can figure something out. And don't listen to these people who put down our music. Those outside of the metal community will never understand or appreciate our music, and that's one of the many things that makes it so damn great.

Most true migraines are caused by PFO, patent foramen ovale. See a cardiologist. Good luck.

Screw health, grab a cigarette and a 40 and a bic light lemme get a newport now it's on!

I was too the doctor prescribed me meds and I feel great I would keep a migraine for at least two weeks. It was horrible I hope you can get thru this migraines shouldn't ruin your life

Invest in ear plugs and wear sunglasses.

I didn't know migraines lasted your entire life. Now I have a reason to fear them.

I was diagnosed with migraines when I was 13. They do suck. I work in an office now, and have to answer phones all day. It's wonderful hearing the loud RIIINNNG, and seeing the bright lights in my office.
