New to having migraines, after starting a new job
Hi, I am new here. I just started a new job where I work in a wharehouse with neons light. as soon as I get inside that working area, I start to have a very unpleasant headache. Its not a headache I am used to, but I definitely feel sick after like 15 minutes being there.
I can only describe that as "I need to close my eyes so bad"
I start to feel better as soon as I get out of there.
what is it!? the neons? I need glasses?
I thought it was because I needed glasses, but my prescription is really not that bad, I have a little bit of astigmatism. (waiting for a new pair of glasses)
My point is that I don't have that when I am home, or only if I read on my cellphone in the dark without my glasses.
Once that "migraine" starts, it last for hours. I need to go lay down, in the dark and close my eyes for a while.
what helps you with that? can it be the neons at work!? Really?
I use to not like the lighting in malls, but I've never had these intense migraine or head pressure before. It literally started after my first week at work. Can they fire me because of that? (I can totally do my work remote, but there's in office meetings that I can't assist. Should they arrange something for me, or eventually I will get fired because I am too demanding?
