headache update

[layniek]

Mother took me to the emergency room last night for the headache I'd had for three days. It had gotten worse and worse through dinner, to the point where I felt nauseated almost always, especially in the car, and lights and sounds really bothered me. I was thinking about how it would just go on, that I didn't have anything to make it stop. So,

Oh, it was very bad, definitely. I don't know if I'm describing it very well, of course. And I can't remember what he gave me, so I can't look up possible side effects.

I have the remote, so I can totally watch what I want to watch. Muwahahahaha!

Your icon rocks. Ryan in the shower!

I'm watching M*A*S*H. I don't know if other people disapprove or not.

I agree it sounds nasty. )-: I remember the anxiety attack I had when they started me on Adderall. I was terrified, but not *of* anything, just terrified of anything and of the thought of doing anything. I remember getting up to make sure I had locked the door was the scariest thing I'd ever done. The darkness in the living room was... the darkness itself was scary.

That aside, I imagine it was probably just a side effect of whatever it was that fixed your headache. Anything that can alter a three-day brain setup in that short a time period is bound to fiddle things up somehow. Or it could just be that the headache going on that long was really scaring you and you couldn't really feel the panic until the actual pain was gone. Some weird-ass post-traumatic stress disorder type thing. Or whatever.

I'm just glad your headache is gone, and hopefully that the panic/weird thing is over. *hug* Now go eat cookies and watch happy things that make you giggle a lot. :-D

I certainly hope it never happens again. :-/
