migrane's a bitch

May 09, 2008 01:31

i had a migrane today on my day off.
that shit sucked.

my sleep cycle is fucked up now, i think.
i wanted to sleep in mad late (which i did) then get up chill at the house for a bit, then go out for the night.
go to sleep at a reasonable time and get up for work tomorrow.
but sometime into the just chillin part the migrane hit... i dunno how or what triggered it, but i first felt my right arm first feel like it wasn't even attached to my body and then go numb right when i stepped outside to smoke a cigarette. then it became just my hand that was numb, then it went away for a couple minutes.. i started thinking to myself that it could be a migrane but hoping it wasn't.

then my face started tingling and going numb, but it quickly moved to my tongue. that's when i knew it was a migrane.
my tongue started feeling like heavy and that it was too big for my mouth, while kinda numb.

i started seeing on the right side of my vision.. like periphials almost.. like a curve of light flickers even though it wasn't really there.
called my mom.. my tongue was still the same, so i'd say some words wrong (like soldier instead of shoulder) and it was aggrivating. but i popped 3 advil and went to go lay down.

bout an hour and 15 minutes later (i think i fell asleep there, but can't remember) the migrane had moved to the left side of my head so i was feeling even more like shit. the left side controls your stomach, so i knew i was fucked as soon as my stomach started feeling bad.
went to the bathroom and threw up.
took a shower... then laid back down around 5-6ish.
woke up here and there but pretty much slept till 8:30.

the migrane's been gone since i woke up, but i'm still feeling like the hangover effects from it.
but now that i've slept so much today, i doubt i'll be going to sleep before 5am.
and i have to be up no later than 12:30pm if i wanna be able to get ready and make it to work on time.

migranes are like a form of torture.
