Heartburn, day two
So I'm in day two of a case of heartburn. My second in the past year, after not having heartburn at all since I quit working for Bossy Lady back in 2007. I quit working for her because I was getting seriously painful heartburn as often as twice a week that was keeping me from sleeping. I suspect it was the stress of working for a crazy boss that did it to me that time. Right now it's the stress of crazy deadlines.
Today's heartburn rather baffles me. I made my deadline before I left. I had a long weekend, I got plenty of sleep and hangout time with friends this weekend. So WTF body? Were we stressed out about coming back to work? I've got a handle on things, don't I? Or maybe my gut doesn't think I do. =(
*huge sigh*
Since I had a case of heartburn a couple of weeks ago, I'd picked up some Pepcid and Zantac just in case. I bought both because I couldn't remember which one was the one that worked for me last time. I took some Pepcid last night. Didn't seem to do any good. This morning I tried a Zantac. We'll see if it kicks in or not.
At any rate, I'm working at home today. I feel not-quite-right this morning. And there was a bit of tummy upset over the weekend, which might have just been strange food. But I know that ravena_kade had a stomach bug going around her office, so I figure I'll stay home just in case this turns out to be something more icky than just heartburn.
ETA - The Zantac seems to be working. Yay!
