mild tmi, emetophobes beware
Thurs night: random 3-hour bout of insomnia. Feel predictably crappy Friday. Headache develops in evening -- assume cause is sleep disruption. Go to bed early.
...doze but don't sleep. Listen to entirety of Les Mis CSR. Headache worsens, nausea develops. Dither about getting up -- because I can only lie on back and can't roll or even turn head, vomiting is potentially dangerous; the one time it happened while I was in bed (literally not enough warning) it was projectile enough to not kill me but there are no guarantees that will always be the case.
2:30ish give in and get up just in case. roommate suggests pepto bismol, which tastes like ... well, pepto bismol, pink and chalky ... and I also take excedrin, which may be bad idea because caffeine but fuck it it works on headaches.
sometime after 3 go back to bed. finally get to sleep...
...only to half wake up at 9:30, need to turn off the (remote controlled) fan because too cold, drop the remote, and more fully wake up trying to un-drop it. Spend an hour trying to go back to sleep and failing because cold and hungry and headachey.
feel like microwaved roadkill. headache has persisted despite excedrin and coffee and lots of tea. nausea on and off but appetite seems ok.
can't tell if headache (migraineish but no aura) is causing nausea or if I have some sort of bug causing both.
