I woke up sometime before 3 am this morning with a major migraine behind my left eye.
I'm pretty sure it was triggered by not getting enough sleep the night before and being unable to take a nap without getting interrupted. It probably could have also been the stress of work the past couple of days that also helped to trigger it.
In any case. I took an Aleve and a Tylenol and a long hot shower before crashing with a heatpack on the couch upstairs until my alarm went off.
While the headache was faint when I woke back up, it ended up coming back while I was at work. Unfortunately due to circumstances I couldn't leave early, so I ended up surviving by drinking a coke and taking a couple of breaks and just trying to distract myself with work.
Once I got home I ate a couple of tuna fish sandwiches to get some more food in me, had a bit of mountain dew and took a 2 hour nap before grabbing an Excedrin and then taking a long bath to soak my aching muscles in the heat.
Currently the headache's finally managed to fade. But we'll see if it stays gone tomorrow.
