I knew when I got Guthrie I had gotten a "special" dog. Those that know me, know what I am talking about. I never expected something like this though.

On Tuesday night I begain to have pain over my left eye. I thought it was just an overtired headache(still feeling the jet lag effects from my Ireland trip). When I woke on Wednesday the headache was still there. I used tylenol, motrin, alleve. Nothing worked.

Finally on Friday I when to see my doctor who ordered a migraine medication Trilapex.. I took it Friday night twice and it did nothing. Headache all day again on Saturday. Sunday afternoon the pain was bad so I went inside to lay down. I grabbed a pillow and laid on the family room floor. Guthrie came over and laid down beside me with his warm fuzzy body pressed against the bad side of my head. When I woke up an hour later the pain was GONE. The first time in 5 days I was pain free!!

Guthrie is my hero!!!

Now I just need to see if I still need to get the MRI/MRA that the doctor ordered.

Isn't it awesome how they know that we aren't feeling well and always want to stick close until we are better?

I get migraines, too, so I know how much they suck!!
