Diario de Skparker, 17 jul. 16

So yesterday was eventful. I woke up with the worst head pain to date. I got up around 9 and took the narcotics that my GP prescribed, but even by 11:30 nothing had made a dent. I called the doctor's office and left messages for the doctor on-call. After talking to my mom and boyfriend and spending too much time crying and rocking back and forth trying to breathe through the pain, I decided I just needed to go to the ER. My wonderful SO took me. My mom met us there. They were able to dull the pain a little bit with their typical cocktail of a steroid, pain reliever, and anti-nausea medications. It was a god send. They also pumped me full of saline to re-hydrate me and warned me that it would add some pounds for a few days. So that's why I have the big jump this morning. I still woke up with a headache again but they gave me enough meds to get through the week when I see a neurologist.

The other relief is that the ER did a CT scan and didn't see anything obviously wrong (tumor, bleeding, etc). So that's a relief. Now we just have to figure out how to manage the pain so I can function like a normal part of society.
