Woke up at 5:30 this morning, after taking a second Zyprexa at 1:30 this morning, at around a 7. Ate a lemon poppy seed muffin to take some Aleve not on an empty stomach.Took a bath and got ready for my doctors appointment. Went to the doctor to discuss the possibility of fibromyalgia. I had to have blood drawn to rule out other options, like epstein barr and mono and lyme's disease, and was referred to a local rheumatologist.
Ran to the apartment for some stuff and then came home. At the apartment I hit my head on the car door which increased the pain to an 8 for about 15 minutes. Everyone was getting ready for Thanksgiving at the house. Helped with the preparartions somewhat, and then people started to arrive. During the celebration. I had to leave to take a shower because the smell of my hairspray was bothering me, making my headache worse and making me feel sick. During the celebrations my headache moved from a 7 to an 8, and my whole back ached. We ate dinner (butternut squash soup, turkey, stuffing, corn pudding, green beans, pecan pie, butter pecan ice cream), and talked for a while. I took 4 more Aleve after dinner. After dinner I went upstairs to lie down for a little bit. I came back downstairs about half an hour later, feeling a little bit rested. I felt guilty not being downstairs with the family on Thanksgiving and wanted to come back.
After family left, we started getting ready to go to the Tuba concert. I was definitely going, even though my pain was at an 8. We all went, with all of our cold weather gear. We stood out in the cold, singing Christmas Carols, watched the tree lighting, saw Santa climb onto the roof of the building nearby. It was all very fun and very festive and I am very glad that I went. Afterwards we went back to our friends house. It was somewhere during standing out in the cold that my pain shifted to a 9. And at our friends house my eyes started going haywire blurry and feeling googly. My girlfriend and I were going to take my friends car and leave, but instead my family decided to leave and I fell asleep in the car on the way home, and then went to bed at soon as we got home, around 10:30.
AM vitamins taken, PM meds taken, with a Zyprexa.
