About 5 days before leaving for Beijing, I admitted to myself that my sinus infection wasn't going to go away on its own and called the doctor for antibiotics. Even while taking the antibiotics, allergra-d, and nasal spray my sinus headaches never went away until after the first day in China. I landed with a horrific headache, dosed it with acetaminophen, and then was fine until the morning after I first slept in my bed.
When I had a headache that went away with acetaminophen & didn't come back until the following morning - after I slept in my bed.
I stripped off everything but the main pillows & washed them.
The headache was back the next day.
Yesterday BF & I bought new pillows & pillowcases.
This morning I woke up in my own bed without a headache for the first time in around a month.
How... odd. I wonder what scent had gotten lodged into those pillows & didn't want to leave?
