Migraines suck
Posted by Gypsy on Mar 9, 2006
Today started out as any other day. I overslept for work, woke up with a bit of a headache, but figured it would go away once I woke up and got some caffeine in me.
Holy shit was I ever wrong.
Even worse, it was one of those slow forming migraines that start out just irritating and ultimately make it so where even a sip of water makes you want to throw up and even the dimmest of lights makes it hurt worse.
By 11 a.m., I couldn’t even listen to my ipod and by 12:30 I could barely look at the computer. By 2 I just couldn’t take it anymore and begged them to just let me go home. Thankfully they could tell something was wrong and let me go. Which was good because by the time I left I wasn’t sure I was going to make it the 45 minutes home, any later and I definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it.
Halfway home and I couldn’t take it anymore, I had to take one of my migraine pills. By the time I got home, I was in so much pain that I walked in and just dropped everything, changed into my PJs, took another pill and went to bed. Three hours later I finally woke up feeling a little more normal. I can eat again and the pain is gone, for the most part. It’s still hovering there, but I think it’ll be gone after a good night’s sleep. I’m so glad the weekend is almost here.
