Bad headaches and other stuff

I woke up yesterday with a screaming headache that did not improve. By night time it felt like my brain was on fire and ready to explode. I sent a message to my pcp and she got back to me today saying I can take up to two doses of my migraine med. I just called as I still have a bad headache. I am waiting for a call back.

I had therapy yesterday. I didn’t know if I was going to keep appt because of the headache. I did and we just talked about random stuff. I totally forgot to ask her what services I need for dept of mental health. I will wait until I see her again before sending the paperwork. We talked briefly about how the anniversary of my suicide attempt is coming up. Hard to believe.

My pcp actually called me rather than the nurse. She said it is most likely migraine activity and I should use my migraine med. I am going to take another dose in about an hour or so. I am glad she agreed it isn’t an aneurysm like I was thinking. She said if I have any neurological symptoms or if it gets worse to go to ED. As long as this is a migraine, I don’t think I will have to go to ED.

I had put a book on hold and the library just sent me a reminder. I am going to try and pick it up tomorrow. It is a Lawrence Block book. I love his Matt Scudder series. I was hoping they would have his latest book but they don’t. I will have to get it my next pay period. Sox are playing the Nationals tonight. Not sure I am up to listening as sound bothers me. Might read and just keep track of the game. I’m not a fan of the pitcher. He either does really good or gets shelled. Very inconsistent. But that is typical of starting pitchers this season. Be a miracle if he got run support but our offense hasn’t been there. Sad.
