Debilitating headache

Spent almost entire yesterday in bed.

Would have been heavenly if it was by choice, unfortunately it was not.

Woke up with a headache, which progressively became worse.

By lunch time it has started to make me nauseous. So it's a struggle to get lunch over with, then another test of willpower to get the dish washing done.

To my upmost regret I didn't took the painkillers then, as I needed to poo and headed straight to the loo. Fighting to not pass out while I got the business done.

Then collapsed on the bed and stayed there, drifting in and out wakefulness for seven or more hours straight, holding my head tight. Not that I didn't want to get up, but I couldn't.

The headache was so bad I didn't feel capable of keeping my balance, so I didn't tried to get out of bed to get the painkillers.

Kept hoping wifey would come to my rescue, checking up on me since I have told her about the severe headache, and I had not been downstairs for so many hours.

After about six hours I knew that's not happening, so I struggled to my phone and sent for help. Thank goodness she came shortly after. Brought me the painkillers and helped me to the toilet so I could pee.

The painkillers took forever to work, I drifted off until about 20:00 hours. The headache has lessened then, maybe just suppressed, as my head felt heavy and numb.

Managed to get the dinner down, and could walk about with the numbed head. But by 22:00 hours the headache was starting again, I guess the painkillers' effect has worn off.

So back to the bed, back to be zombie.

What a wonderful Sunday, not.
