if this is just the start?

my head is fucking killing me. it hurt when i went to bed, it hurts now that i have woken up. i felt flushed after dinner last night so checked my temperature. the ear thermometer said 99.5 in one and 99.9 in the other, so i checked with another digital one under my arm and it said 98.1. i have no idea which is more accurate.

but if i have a temperature i can't take paracetamol because it will mask a temperature.

this morning the headache is just as bad and the temperature readings are half a degree lower.

i've taken a dihydrocodeine because i want the headache to go away. a co-codamol or two would have done the trick by now, but the supposedly strong painkiller isn't doing a damn thing.

this totally totally sucks.

oh and, N decided to go back to his go slow ways this morning, and my mum didn't get any sleep last night and she has a headache too. guess what kind of day it's going to be?

checkup with the plastic surgeon this afternoon. let's hope i get through one fucking medical appointment without bad news, eh?

well that's one thing at least

i washed my hair this morning and it all stayed on my head.

thankful for small mercies, eh?
