Apparently I can't take NyQuil.
Oops.
And I learned this the hard way.
I woke up at 3:30 drenched in sweat, shaky, feeling extremely light headed and floaty and with my heart racing. I stumbled to the bathroom to get the thermometer and found myself nearly coughing up a lung. I feebly called for my mother who I had already woken up with my coughing. She wrapped a big towel around me and told me to relax, that I was working myself up too much. (And I was.) She told me not to take anything else and that I should sip some water and then try to sleep. By 4, I was back in bed and I fell asleep again.
But, gosh, I was scared. I'd never had that happen to me before.
I'm ok now, but I still feel a little funny.
Today, I relax. Or try to at least.
I'm thinking hot cocoa and cookies. Yum.
health,
sleep
