Well, apparently all my wierd cravings and moodiness have been leading up to a migraine.
I woke up this morning at 8am with the worst migraine I've ever had, and it's been 5 years since I had one at all.
My mom was already on her way here to get Abigail, then decided no way could she leave me here alone, so after letting one round of Rx Zomig (at 9am) take the edge off, she took me along with the kids to her house to "take care of me" which meant, keeping things dark, quiet and a cold cloth on my head.
I took another dose of Rx Zomig at 11am and finally fell asleep at almost noon and woke up at 2:30 finally able to open my eyes. The nausea was gone and I ate some nuts.
It's 6:30now and I am MUCH better, able to sit up, see just fine, no more numbness in my face or hands and with some extra stregnth tylenol at 5:00 the headache is pretty much diminished.
I'm still pretty drugged up - I should sleep like a rock with that Zomig - I've never taken more than 1/2 a pill before and so took 2 FULL ones today.
I did eat a good dinner (sandwhich on whole wheat w/ motz cheese, turkey, nonfat low suagr mayo and avocado and some tomatoes) and will eat some strawberries w/ ice cream for dessert.
I hope to be back 100% tomorrow!!! I better be, I'm on my own with the kids!!
