totchipandaI woke up with the WORST migraine I've had in a long time. Usually, they just come and ache. If I'm lying down, they tend not to hurt too much as long as I stay still. Not this one. It ached all the time. I had a feeling it would be like the last time this happened, when I had to go get Tylenol from Dad's place and wound up puking it back out 'cuz being upright for more than a minute made me nauseous.
Sure enough, got up to pee and fetch the drugs from my purse. Lay down for a couple minutes. Took 2, called my boss to tell her that I was going to be late because I couldn't move without getting sick. A few minutes later, up again to potty, and just as I was washing my hands, blah vomiting.
Upside: I felt better after that. Next time I'll try just puking before doing anything else and see what happens. I doubt it could hurt more.
Took more drugs and dozed for a short time before going to work. I've had a lingering headache all day, my tummy isn't precisely happy but it also isn't rebelling too badly, and of course there's the ever-present feeling in the back of my throat from horking up nothing but pill capsules and stomach acid.
And you know what I think triggered this one? Water. I don't think I drank enough water over the last couple days to keep myself properly hydrated, and whammo, migraine from hell. Possibly the increasingly improving weather played a part, but I know I haven't been drinking enough. Fellow con-goers, please harass me if you don't see me drinking or with one in hand/nearby. This is a regular occurance at cons for me despite me trying hard not to let it happen.
I WILL be telling a doctor about this next time I see one, in the next month. This is getting ridiculous.
