Just ugh
I lost the whole of yesterday to the nastiest migraine I've ever had. I'm not even kidding with that. It's time to discuss some kind of suppressant with my GP, I think, because the 36 hours of torment was just not worth anything. Usually I can at least take Migraleve and sleep off the worst of it: this one, not even touched by Migraleve and there was no possibility of sleeping.
Ugh. Today I'm dealing with the hangover from it but that's much nicer than the actual migraine. I may just spend some time editing the ridiculously daft fic that I wrote last week and then retreat to my Olympics coverage and a nice book (I've finished the newest Mercedes Lackey and I'm onto John Scalzi's latest).
I may also be spending some quality time with
scifigrl42's botfic that has now been finished and is on AO3 for your downloading pleasure :-D
I expect that the ridiculously daft fic will go onto AO3 on Wednesday. I want to do an edit today then I usually leave it another day before posting so that I can do a final typo-catching read. Except tomorrow after work I'm spending quality time with my hairdresser and her Big Book of Colours, so Wednesday.
The visit with Awesome GI Guy went about as well as expected, although I was pleasantly surprised to find that my haemoglobin is over 100 which I wasn't expecting. Apparently I'm better at processing iron than I used to be. Sadly, this means I have no excuse for steak. Boo.
However, I'm nicely flaring. Thankfully GI Guy was able to view normal tissue on an incredibly uncomfortable exam that triggered nasty cramps but is still better than having a scope, which is what he would have done if he hadn't been able to see normal tissue.
Currently, we're on plan A: up the Humira to every week, cross our fingers and review in a month. I'm not sure what plan B is, although I suspect that it may be steroids and adding Imuran to my regimen. Ugh.
Fingers crossed for plan A guys, OK? Let's kill my immune system some more!
As a treat for enduring Thursday's medical visit and yesterday's migraine, I've bought myself Harry Potter on Kindle so that I can reread when I've finished the other books that I have queued. I really know how to indulge myself :-D
