Slow & Painful
jennifer wrote this at 9:52 pm

Night has fallen on day 7 of the never-ending headache & I think the time has finally come to try to get into the doctor.

(Please God, let them be able to see me tomorrow.)

Why?….

Oh, a couple of reasons.

[said nonchalantly]

  • Didn’t get more than 45 minutes of sleep at a time last night
  • Crying when I realized not even Excedrin Migraine works only made it hurt worse
  • Bending over to feed & pet the dogs, tie my shoes or sweep up the mud tracked in from all this rain only the intensifies the pain
  • I’ll say something & the last word of the sentence comes out completely different from than the word I had in my brain, head – see what I mean?
  • I feel dizzy from time to time
  • I feel nauseous occasionally
  • I refuse to turn my head to the right because I know I can’t do it without grimacing
  • And the best I could manage for Eric’s birthday dinner tonight was a weak Chicken & Dumplings and homemade cake wreck that rivaled my best ever failure (got pictures & everything to show you later)

That & I’m totally losing any sense of humor I once had.

Can’t figure out how to write something funny to blog about to save my soul.

Oh, I got stories…like the puppy sticking her tongue to the metal air compressor box outside this week when it was freezing outside .

Can you say ‘ssstttthhhhuuuuucccckkkk‘? But that’s the best I got.

See?…

I gotta get this fixed.

Pronto. (damn) Fast.

    I’ll be thinking of you and hoping that you feel like yourself soon. My daughter suffers from migraines…she’s like a barometer. If its going to storm or even just rain, she gets one. You may have something ‘out of line’ in your back and need an adjustment but I know the worry from all the “could it be’s” just make things worse. So, yes….you need to get checked out. Hugs.

    It almost sounds like an inner ear problem==Dr.Tee
    Tell Eric a late happy birthday

  4. Bless your heart. I hope the doc can help and you get to feeling better QUICK!

    Girl, you need to see the doctor NOW! I used to have migrains, but quit after finally getting on blood pressure pills. Please go see them soon. We are praying for you. Love you.

So What Do You Think?
