And the body fails again
I am sitting here at the computer with sunglasses on. It's almost 10 pm and I haven't been able to stand up or walk for at least 6 hours now. I had a really bad headache when I got up this morning and did my usual dosage of Tylenol to combat it. After a few hours it was actually worsening, so I went to the store to get some stronger drugs. I spent most of the afternoon in bed fighting what has now become the worst headache I've ever had.
I ended up calling my mom while she was at work telling her that I needed her to come home as quickly as she could once work was done. The wonderful lady that she is left work about 40 minutes early to make sure I was alright... which I wasn't. By this time I had collapsed a few times while trying to get around the house. She called a few doctors to see if we could get in somewhere extremely quickly, and eventually found one who would take me in. He gave me some migraine specific painkillers, which managed to do absolutely nothing for my headache.
I've spend most of the night laying in bed because I just can't do anything else. I finally migrated to the couch which is where I am writing this from. I'm still laying down, and can only really get around by kind of crawling or remaining really hunched over while supporting myself on furniture and walls. As long as I'm laying on my back, the pain is almost tolerable.
I have an appointment with my family physician first thing tomorrow morning. Hopefully I'll provide an update after that.
