Oh you poor thing....sounds so miserable...and familiar. You know, that is strange. I had a weird headache that started late yesterday (Wed) afternoon and would NOT let up. I usually deal with "pain" so to have this head "ache" was odd. But as it progressed it made me nauseas and off balance etc. I felt horrible! I took several different medications over time and nothing seemed to work. I finally took a little phenergan to help with the nausea and it helped the headache go away. Phenergan was originally created for headaches, then they moved to an anti-nausea medication. I was so wiped out by the pain that I slept all night, which is unusual for me.
I hope you start feeling better soon. There is nothing more rotten than having to lie around because you don't feel well. That is pretty much how I spent my day yesterday....in my PJ's and tooling around my computer, as my head would allow.
I know what you mean about moms....mine is just at 70 and if I have this next "big" chiari surgery, she will come to help take care of me and my boys. I sometimes feel bad that at this age she is still having to nurse me back to health....not too often. She lives in Chattanooga whereas I'm in NC. But she has done it in the past. And will have to if I have this chiari surgery.
I hope you can start to feel better. I hate feeling bad.
Well get the much needed rest....my dad (dr.) always preaches that if you are tired, you should go with the flow and let your body rest or even fall asleep. That is when it heals best.
Keep us updated on how you are.
Talk to you soon-
