How do I absolve my medical conditions? ?
I'm 16 and a sophomore in high school; however, I suffer from chronic daily headaches and migraines. I was recently on Topamax which gave me horrible side effects. I went through a sleep study where they found I have minor sleep apnea and am being treated with nasal irrigation and physical therapy on my neck until I do a follow up. I also have acid reflux (possibly triggered by pain medications such as ibuprofen or heredity) and grind my teeth which is contributing to an extreme loss of sleep and several awakenings throughout the night. I have missed several days of school because of my inability to go due to migraines or simply being so tired. I have so much work to do from school and my problems are getting worse and obviously affecting all aspects of my life; it's hard to understand by other people because they believe I'm being "lazy" , I have nothing really to prove them wrong seeing as my attendance and grades are equally affected. I used to be a great student but now my life feels out of my control. help me please anything helps as I will try anything. I know it's a lot to read but thanks in advance :)
