Hey Everyone
So .. This week has not been my week with this headache thing! I still think that in its original context it was related to my girly time and loosing too much blood too fast – which with me that isn’t a surprise- I have always had some weird girly times /related stuff (bleed for months at a time, not bleed for months at a time- easy to start bleeding if I over extend myself and such) so I figured hey… nothing new here- except maybe this is a migraine that is related ..
I Had convinced myself that by tomorrow afternoon I’d be doing tons better on that note.. my girly stuff had stopped sometime on Wed .. Actually I had started late Sunday and then Monday it stopped for several hours and started back.. that was a bit different. So..Wed . I spent most of the day reading and I didn’t feel good but like I say I thought hey this is a migraine it will be ok within 72 hours or so..
Well Yesterday when David left for work.. I started being super dizzy but i was like oh ok whatever and went back to sleep.. woke up totally dizzy and started having some panic- took excedrin migraine in two doses and NOTHING.. I got convinced if I threw up i’d be o.k. but haven’t ate much all week so not much to try to throw up you know? I sure tried though. My mom and and dad were in the mountains/on the parkway and at several points in the day I had horrible panic attacks . I tried to keep my mind off of things and watched tv- I couldn’t really conentrate well enough to read… I have to say that yesterday was my worse day for sure. I almost called David /tried to go to ER/Urgent care several times.
Around 3 I was like O.k I want a clean head – my hair needed washed /re straightened desprately ..so I was like heck I am so spinny who knows if this is a good idea (I could hardly get out with Mars but hey) I managed to get in and out and unscathed. Well.. I decided to check my heart rate- it was 165! I guess from shower/panic what not.. I started drinking water and it was crazy how fast I not only brought it down in the 80’s but my spinny kinda went away as well
I also checked my BP and it wasn’t crazy high- the bottom number was a little low but I was within “normal” guidelines so ??
I rested a while and kept drinking water and about 5 something I was like O.k i want to change sheets on my bed – they needed changed before i started my girly stuff but you know- girly stuff so why bother lol. well.. I like to kiled myself but I got that done too!
I just kept hydrating and whatever and for several hours – like until 10 or so I was mostly o.k. I mean lightheaded and such- yes.. but spinny? no .. It is so crazy I never quite got the difference in lightheaded/dizzy until now lol they are different ! David was late getting home but I had him bring me some gatorade and I had drank that and almost 2 liters of water as well so .. I was quite hydrated!
I had just made some sleepy tea- I have been having a time trying to sleep /rest thanks to all the caffeine i’ve been drinking this week. Well. .I was letting it cool down and watching tv.. David was doing a few random things.. and the POWER went out ! I was like OH DEAR LORD i am going to DIE IN A BLACKOUT.. lol
It was off about 15 min , I drank my tea and went to bed. I was up 900x to pee of course and I noticed around 3.. that first of all why was the lights/sound on the sound spa off? I had left the aroma on but I figured that would run out at some point.. well I went to the bathroom and checked my phone and the power had been off again. I also noticed that my “funk” had taken a turn.. it seemed like it was more tummy concentrated- VERY nauseous. so I was like o.k maybe this is a good thing you know? I just felt totally different -not good.. but not bad.. but different lol
Oh and at 3 a/m ? totally raining cats and dogs ha ha. Oh and it still is. and it is super cold lol. .. go figure.. I woke up about 8 after David went to work originally. and it was so dark I was like WOW. So.. I figure this means I need to rest some more lol
Today basically I have the light head thing… sometimes a bit dizzy.. kind of a pain around my left ear at times. I am starting to think that this might have something to do with my vertigo (which I have had since I was like 4- though it doesn’t flare up quite this bad like.. ever but.. you never know.. ) + maybe an ear infection of some sorts? I still have the nausea/tummy thing most of all but.. I’m trying to push on through and hope that it will clear on up you know? My left ear is my “bad ear” so.. it would make sense in a way. (My right eye is my “bad eye” if you were curious lol)
I am in tons better spirits ,and that helps a ton. I’m about to drink my last gatorade, figure out dinner (though I haven’t really ate all week which sucks!) I am like if I ever get better (WHEN right not IF) I am buying myself a HUGE FREAKING STEAK i swear. I mean yesterday my splurge? I at some strawberries and cream and CROUTONS lol- which actually the ONLY thing I think I could eat at this point is bread sticks.. so there you go. …
Thankfully, I didn’t have too much that needed done this week right.. i’d have likely been doing mostly what I have been doing just not feeling so darn funky while doing it.. + I read a CRAP TON of books lol. I don’t know if you ever notice but I can make anything into where i’m like well if you can’t laugh about it.. lol ..
Right now i’m gonna get off here and find something that don’t turn my tummy, find something to watch/read and cuddle up with the fur folks on this cold rainy day!!
hopefully i’ll write some more later. Maybe I can tell you about my cooking adventure /post some pics from last weekend and such.. anything that helps distract me and pass time is on my list at this point!
