I saw the neurologist this week. He has put me on a beta blocker, at a very low dose. While this is typically used to treat high blood pressure(which I do NOT have at all), it is also used to treat migraines. Now I do not have migraines if you recall. I have "Intractable Tension Headaches". It is just a bit too early to tell if this is going to work for me yet. I am on the starting dose yet. He has had patients that have had this medication completely remove the headaches. We shall see.
Would any of my American friends want this SB pattern? I am sorry, it must be an American friend due to postage costs.
It has been very hot here all week. I stay mostly inside in the A/C. Best way to avoid bad headaches. Good weather for tomatoes, green beans and summer squash though. :)
I hope you have an excellent weekend my friends! Thank you for stopping in.
Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Wonderful finish. I like your shelf.
Have a nice weekend.
I would love the SB patriotic kit. I love the cubby idea for your month Xstitching finishes!

Sweet July finish Vickie!
Super July small, Vickie! Your cubby looks super. Enjoy your weekend! Hope the beta blocker helps with the headaches.
PS I don't need to be entered for the chart.
Love your July stitch!
Lovely finish,Vickie.
Congrats on the pretty finish Vickie. I really like the July in the bottom cubby. Can you tell me who the designer is? Hope the new meds help your headaches.

Great work on your cubby samplers. Love the sparkle in July.
At least the doctor is prepared to try something different, maybe this will work for you.
I do hope this new medication helps you, Vickie. I never dreamed you would still be dealing with the headaches all these months later and I'm so sorry. Of course, I'm praying for you and for God's healing touch!
I would love the pattern and would definitely stitch it. It's just too adorable and I love the Americana theme! I've never seen that pattern before.
Have a lovely weekend and stay cool! ((hugs))
Blessings - Julie
Lovely stitching as always sweet friend. :) I will pray with you in agreement that the new pills will work and rid you of those nasty headaches. Blessings to you always sweet friend. :)
Your cubby featuring all your July stitching looks fabulous!
Stay inside out of the heat and relax this weekend. :)
Your little cubby looks great. I will continue to pray for you, I hope this new treatment will help. I would love to have my name added for the chart. It looks like all of the U.S. is heating up for the next few days. UGH I am only going out for work and back.
Love your July finish - the metallic threads really do add that bit of extra interest.
All your finishes look great. You are brave to use the metallic threads. I used some last Oct. and they gave me fits. I hope the headaches stay away for good very soon. Meanwhile stay cool!
Lovely little finish! Fingers crossed the new medication works :D
Dearest Vickie,
your July Board looks so beautiful, a wonderful collection of summery embroidery.
I hope the antihypertensives helps a bit against your headache, an attempt is worth it. I'll keep my fingers crossed!
Embrace yourself your Sandra
Lovely July stitching .
I will pray that this moves your headaches sending some BIG hugs.
Beta blockers for migraines -- I had no clue. Wow. I hope they work for you. Many prayers that they do. Enjoy seeing all your stitching as well. Can you tell I've been neglecting reading blogs again? Ah well.
Your cubby is gorgeous, Vickie! And congrats on having the patience to work over 1 with metallics!!
Hope the beta blockers will work for you x
Your finish is so bright and cheerful. Metallic floss can be challenging but I love the sparkle. I hope you feel better soon. My mom suffered migranes all the time also. She is on medicine and it helps so much.
I love the colors on your new July finish. It's so neat that they all fit in for your sampler. I hope the beta blocker works for your haedaches, take care.
You did a lovely job with the metallic threads - I always have a hard time with them. : ) Your little finish fits in with your other July finishes nicely! Hoping to hear that the new medicine has helped. Hugs.
Your cubby shelf holds some beautiful pieces. And your latest finish all stitched with metallics is a great addition to it. It certainly wasn't too much fun to stitch with the two metallics but the effect is awesome.
Lovely July finish! Hope your new med works! love Annette
Your cubby has some really cute July pieces in it so far... good work! My daughter has been really suffering with migraines... in fact, today she is thinking about going to the ER. I will mention Intractable Tension Headaches--don't know if they ever considered them in diagnosing her, or just went straight to migraines. I pray the new meds take away your pain, all the way! Hugs!
Wonderful July stitches Vickie. Stay cool and well!
Your July cubby looks great, Vickie! Don't know how you stitch with metallic threads--they just drive me crazy...
I do hope the beta blockers do some good--I guess at this point you'll try just about anything. It would be wonderful if those nasty headaches would finally be beaten!
