I had a headache all week. Started Monday morning. At first I thought it was because I was dehydrated, or because it's been rainy, but when it wasn't gone by Wednesday I called the doctor.
Went to the doctor on Thursday who said my body has been through "significant trauma" and the migraine is stress related. I'm also anemic (apparently it takes 6-8 weeks for the body to replace lost blood cells), so that doesn't help either. I got medicine for both and went home to bed. Worked with my lights off at work, and kept the shades pulled at home. Headache about 50% better Friday, and way better Saturday. I didn't have much of an appetite all week either, so it was kind of hard to eat. Kind of a crappy week.
Nice weekend though! Went strawberry picking with Stacey, Dave and Nate. We had a picnic in the shade, listened to music, and played Nate's favorite game Uno. Was nice to be out in the fresh air. My stomach doesn't feel that good, but we had a nice time anyway.
It's Sunday night now. Hoping this will be a better week. Tuesday is one month since surgery, and Friday is another nutrition group. I'm really wondering when I will feel like myself again.
It sounds like at least your headaches are under control? But I can am sure that recovery is a long road back to normal. Strawberry picking sounds like a fun day though :-) Glad to hear that you were able to enjoy the weekend!
