Showering with migraine ...
Interesting post from Teri Robert on dangers that lurks in the bathroom during migraine attack:
http://www.healthcentral.com/migraine/c/123/177875/safety-comfort-migraine/
One thing only - do we have to suffer such ugly pieces of shower/bath furniture?
My friend was able to buy at some trendy downtown kitchen/bath boutique such a terrific European acrylic orange bath chair
which somewhat resembled a Swiss cheese lol
but still it was so comfy and beautiful, and most of all -practical. the water seeped thru holes, and since it was plastic it didn't get moldy
and dried in no time. cleaning it was a zip.
I tried to find a picture of it but can't, perhaps b/c it is a good few years old chair, probably either discontinued or not imported anymore.
nevermind, though, here's something also possibly suited for a bath/shower that is so much prettier:
the mother of simplicity
same, in dark pink
T M o S 2
M -shaped
for blue blooded
(my friend had a very similar chair, hers had had more round and irregular holes on both top and bottom)
swiss cheese chair
so many fantastic colors!
lace chair
all holes
even goths can have their own
muted colors
comfy swiss cheese
simple yet pretty
cute red stool
avocado ? bomb?
there is plethora of plastic and acrylic furniture online, just put in the with address bar either "chair" or "stool",
"acrylic", "plastic", - whichever you prefer, you may simply write "acrylic chair" or "modern acrylic chair" etc
and you'll be amazed how abundant and how imaginative stuff can be.
I'd happily pay even $200+ bucks for a truly gorgeous acrylic chair knowing not only I'll be happy every time at showertime
but I'll also have quite a showy piece in an unexpected place , lolol

Re: Showering with migraine ...
Personally, I tend to bathe (tub bath) when the migraines have me dizzy and unstable. I also keep a desk lamp with a very low wattage bulb (40/60?), and use that on the Uber photophobic days, however our bathroom has a huge window (at 6 foot high on the wall), if I can I'll use sunlight, and if it's too bright I've got posterboard cut to fit and block the light. I'm using the foam board that kids around here use for their science fair projects.
I do think the idea is a great one, it's just our shower is so small you'd have nothing besides you and the chair, you possibly optional.
On the horrific days, I just toss my hands up, and go without a shower, since I'm not leaving the house on the colt 45 days.
