My blog was all about my training, but now it's about living with an incurable disease that robs a little piece of me every day.

Saturday with stomach woes
After the most amazingly annoying night of my life, I woke up with the start of a migraine. Our smoke detectors were going off from 1AM until around 2. Ask my husband what I looked like standing on our bed with my pillow, trying to wave it in front of the detector and giving up when I couldn't make the noise stop. I beat the thing with the extension of our vacuum until it was dangling like a pinata at a kids birthday party. Brad comes in screaming, That's 120 volts what the hell are you doing?? We finally got things taken care of with that, but I think it was that Black and tan my husband made me hitting me the wrong way. My head started hurting immediately after I drank it. I felt like a migraine was starting. Fast forward to 1 in the morning and the smoke alarms going off. It is right above my side of the bed and is so piercing. I was ready to scream, by then, my head hurt so desperately. I finally fell asleep around 3. It hurt to move my head. When the dogs barking to go out at 8 woke me this morning, to even open my eyes was painful. I knew it was heading towards a full blown migraine unless I got something in my belly to eat so I could take my medicine. Brad came down around 9 to find me holding my head in my hands on the couch. I hate taking the medicine I do because it really bothers my stomach. I knew we had packet pick up today and didn't want my stomach giving me trouble for that. I finally had to break down and take it, the aleve and motrin didn't work at all. Anyway, I took Zantac and Immodium with it, to no avail. I managed to control myself long enough to go get our packets and get home. My head is doing alright, but my stomach is still a mess. How the hell am I going to do this tomorrow? No humor tonight, just quiet desperation and hoping I will make it for tomorrow. If my head hurts like it did this morning I already told Brad there would be no way I could possibly do it. I think that will be okay, here's hoping that the nausea and everything else is gone in the morning.
