Wait'll ya hear THIS one.
I decided to take all my vitamins AND my regular effexor AND the ultracet. Last night I took an ultracet and took a zyrtec to control itching. Zyrtec is to be taken just once in 24 hours, and I do tend to react strongly to meds.
Sooooo, being in a nice painful fibro fog this morning, i decide I'll just take 1/2 a zyrtec wth my ultracet.... soon after I took it I realized I hadn't needed to take ANY since I still had it inmy system from last night. (too late, tho)
I started to feel really sick, sweaty, nauseous, just ILL. Had to get my kids off to school.... they were late. I dropped them off on my way to school for me. Still not feeling so great, I head into the building, see the dark hallway and our classroom door closed and it dawns on me: I don't HAVE the 9 am. class on Mondays. It's only on Wed and Fri!
So I decided to take a little nap in the car waiting for my 11 class. Felt weird, loopy, very sleepy, but it was strange. I jumped with every noise etc. Drive around to park a little closer to my 11 o'clock class and head over. I was dragging; even used my cane, which I rarely do at school.
One guy almost bumps into me and recognised me and said "class was cancelled!" A few others do the same... I didn't recognise any of them ~ part of my fibrofog is that face blindness called prosopagnosia. So freaky.
anyway, how do you like THAT? I don't think of it as a complete waste, though, because I really did need to just do NOTHING and that's what I did. It was frustrating though.
