It’s nearly three in the morning as I write this, curled up under a blanket full of sweat in hopes that I won’t wake my sleeping husband – at least not for another hour.
I was incredibly sick for the last twenty four hours or so, and the imaginary spike driven through my skull was only partially relieved when I spent hours in total darkness and absence of sound. A migraine? It had been a while, dehydration was a likely culprit after my battle with fluids and solids. I had full-on seizures for the first time in weeks. My stomach still in knots, still unable to eat or drink with any certainty (and taking my medicine without gagging was soon out of the question), my husband ran out for some seltzer which I sipped slowly and burped with both delight and trepidation. One wrong decision could lead me back to vomittown. Not cool. Especially when passing out frequently was an uncontrollable option.
Hubby has a sleep-deprived EEG tomorrow so I woke up from my recovery around one in the morning to him just getting to bed. Haven’t been able to fall back asleep and not sure I should, but I’m torn about using my phone at all to do anything let alone write when I just had intense aura so vivid that I though the room really was full of flashing lights and wavy vibrations.
(Ron Howard Narrator Voice: It was not.)
I just know I have to make sure he’s up in time to head out, so falling back asleep is also making me nervous. I usually wake up before any alarms ever go off but things are different when my health takes a dive like this. I was scared for much of the evening, to be honest. There was nothing else to do but get to a hospital, and most likely this was the usual and I’d just be sent home with a bill and possibly a new guess at what is causing all my issues that we end up chasing down a rabbithole. I didn’t want him to postpone this appointment again (if you recall, he was in the ER months back for his own possible seizure that lead to a concussion) and may be it was dumb to try and ride it out, especially if I am as dehydrated as I’ve been in the past, but he puts off enough for me. This has to get done.
Just took an indica + cbd 1:1 dose.
Should help…
