 Woke up this morning with a headache behind my right eye this time. *exhales* It may have to do with how I slept or something. Maybe in a bad position? As my right shoulder and side of my neck are sore. So yah...probably sleep related. 

Trying to make it go away but since I can't exactly take Excedrin when I'm currently taking Advil...who knows if I'll be able to. Heatpacks haven't helped yet, neither has caffeine...so gonna try a shower next and maybe going back to bed.

 Had a slight stress headache today...though it may be slightly hormonal as well because it's once again behind my left eye, but since it started at work...it's probably stress related as well.

 Woke up with a migraine behind my left eye this morning which is by far not the best birthday present to give myself. *shakes head* I was able to make it go away with rest and some meds and heatpacks. So there's that at least.

 I ended up with a slight headache at work today.

Part of it could be the fact that I stayed up until 3 am last night and slept until my alarm went off (with a small disturbance at like 8am for an Amber Alert) for me to go to work.

But I think it was mostly triggered because I ended up being the cashier on the register from 12-130 today because our official cashier ended up going home early today and we needed the coverage and I was the free body to help cover as our two stockers were needed to finish up the truck. 

And like being stuck on register isn't fun.

But it's even less fun when you have a constant stream of customers for that hour and a half.

Like the line never ended. Whenever I would get down to one person another customer would jump in line before I finished ringing up the transaction.

Which on the one side was great because it meant I wasn't going to be standing there bored waiting for someone to come check out.

On the other side it meant that I had to be 'on' for a full hour and a half. Which meant constant interaction. Constant chatter. I had to be social and couldn't just escape away from the register to go to a different corner of the store.

*exhales*

So yah, pretty sure that triggered my headache behind my right eye.

I took a couple of excedrin and a couple of breaks to try and make it go away but it's still lingering a bit.

 I ended up getting my second dose of the Covid Vaccine on June 11th. 

Ended up with one of those 'tired' headaches behind my eyes where you feel so tired that your eyes hurt. 

Since then I've had a slight headache basically every day though I think most of them were caused by the heat wave we've been going through since it's been reaching 100 and over this week.

And when you're working 8 hours a day doing a closing shift in a building with soso ac and while still wearing a mask...yah...I've ended up with a headache behind my right eye from the tension in my neck.

Which again. Could be heat related, but could also be vaccine related as I got the shot in my right arm -as I am left handed- and the muscles were tense on my right side.

Though the migraine I got late June 17th/Early June 18th is probably hormonal in nature as it was behind my left eye.

I've spent a lot of the week mostly sleeping and taking hot showers/baths in attempts to get the headache to go away. Meds haven't really been working this time around and again most of the headaches are probably heat/ tension induced. 

So I'm looking forward to a day off and staying in the cool darkness and hopefully avoiding triggering yet another headache.

 The muscles in the right side of my neck started getting tense today towards the end of my work shift. Been taking Excedrin to stay on top of it but I think the stress and the heat here have contributed to a slight ache forming behind my right eye. Nothing major. Getting some real food after my shift seems to have helped it a bit.

 The migraine was back this morning when I woke up. Aching behind my left eye.

I ended up taking excedrin and another long hot bath to try and make it go away.

Even delayed going into work a couple of hours to ensure that my headache was fully gone before I went in tonight as I didn't want to suffer again with another migraine. Thankfully I was able to get it gone before I went into work. So yay.
