Prayer

Friends,
I have a prayer request. For the last few years, I've on and off dealt with some eye issues...My eyesight gets blurry, I see bright flashing lights out of the corner of my eye etc. It usually doesn't last long and after consulting a Dr. last year, found that I have a very mild case of photo-optic epilepsy....For lack of a better description. It's brought on by certain lighting.
It sounds worse than it is. Three days ago I began a new job, at a jewelry store, and on my first day experienced what I believe was a migraine. Worst 1o hours of head pain I've ever felt accompanied by my eyes going blurry, the flashing lights etc. I couldn't move.
I've kept the worst at bay the last few days with drugs but had I not, I would have been on day 3 of that migraine.
If you haven't put it together yet, we're suspicious that the special lighting (VERY bright lights) reflecting on the glass cases is causing these head aches, which beyond being painful, are really hard to continue life with and when you have little ones....Stopping life isn't much of an option.
We just need wisdom and possibly a few more answers medically but before we run for "relief and answers" we want to make sure we're seeking refuge under the shadow of HIS wings. :)
Thanks for listening, we'll keep you posted.
