It was a major migraine when I woke up this morning.
The one that was starting to take hold last night when I went to bed.
Well...at least it didn't keep me up all night.
But I woke up with it pounding away inside my skull and...*exhales*
It was bad enough that I considered calling work and asking if I could come in like an hour later so I could take a shower and doze for a bit longer to try and get rid of it.
However, I was stubborn and figured I would be by myself my entire shift (I was right) and really I could use all the time I could get....So I downed a couple of advil and drove into work with a heatpack pressed against my shoulders.
Work itself...was difficult for the first couple of hours.
Really the first half hour or so I spent curled up on the floor behind the fish wall.
As I couldn't really stand up for longer than a minute or two without feeling like I was going to throw up.
So I had to move more slowly than I wanted...to the point where I was seriously figuring it would have been better for me to come in late. *exhales*
Still...as time passed and my muscles warmed up and the meds took effect...
The headache faded.
It's remain present throughout the day. But has stayed in the 1-2 pain range scale of minor nuisance instead of the 7 or 8 it was at earlier to day.
I was careful to eat more food and to take a nap today as well.
So hopefully that will help prevent it from coming back tomorrow.
