A Brief Rebellion
So, at about 4:30 yesterday afternoon, my neck started to hurt. I don't know why I still ignore this symptom. It is a warning sign when it hurts like that! Hello! Can we catalog this info for next time please? Anyway, it grew into one of those crashing headaches. I don't know that I would call them migraines, as my vision doesn't get the spots or any of that kind of thing, and I can still function with them, it's just not fun. Anyway, after dinner I went and curled up in bed with a hot corn bag while Tom went off and ran errands on his own.
So, for the 3 of you who called last night while I was in headache-land, I'm sorry I was useless. I love you all and will try to get in touch with you today.
I don't know if my headache was connected to this, but yesterday was no-baby day (aka, the first day of my period), and last night I had cramps for the first time in... years? I am very, very lucky on this front and hardly get them, but this morning Tom warmed the corn pillow back up for me and I stayed in bed for a bit. Not that it was restful, as Athena was sure it was the perfect time to play Mouse. *sigh* So, right now, I have the remnants of both that and my headache sort of barely hanging on and I feel pretty drained. But, I think I'll be fine within a couple hours, as long as I move gently for a bit.
