And don't forget solace - I put it on my lower abdomen - been using it 2 to 3 weeks out of a month - it has done amazing things as far as balancing out my hormonal anxiety.

You said you are drinking a lot of water, may I suggest putting 3-4 drops of Lemon essential oil in there as well. This will dissolve any toxins that are being exported from your cells, so that they do not cause harm to the rest of your body like what is happening here. The GX Assist and supplement system from doterra are incredible, and it sounds like your body desperatly needs to finish getting all the toxins from these medications flushed out, not to mention some candida. Candida especially causes stuff like this, and both sugar and antibiotics make candida flare up. The LLVP will aid in healing and balancing your system. It really is amazing. If I were in your situation, this is what I would do:

Put the lemon in your water, and cut off a lot of your sugar and carb intake, though I know you said you were already on Weight Watchers. The LLVP will also regulate your hormones.

My mother's best friend actually has had severe migrains for years, and regularly used and still uses deep blue, and her migrains hardly ever come now, and aren't nearly as bad. She applied it the same as Past tense, but primarily on the back of the neck.
