Pain woke me up at 3:30 a.m. Yesterday I took a vicodin at 4:30 p.m. so I could make it to church. I tried to go without at 8 when the pain came back. Must have been a mistake. Anyway....I used the heat, ate some cereal and still can't go back to sleep. Not smart to let it get this bad. My left jaw is REALLY painful. Never had that before. Always my right jaw and temple. Change is as good as a holiday right? sigh.I'm at the computer to use writing instead of valium. The pain gets me so tight and anxious that I COULD use a valium but for tonight I will just treat it like a normal person who can't sleep. You get up and do something else until you get sleepy. Actually a little cereal and milk usually makes me sleepy...anyway...Church tonight was graduation from the homeless center where I volunteer. I got to see lots of my "buds" plus enjoy Peggy - one of my favorite grand dames at church. Visited with a neighbor...just good ol fashioned fellowship. If love heals I should be better soon.I was unusually hungry yesterday (thyroid?) and the weather is set to change tomorrow. Pressure is 29.95 in / 1014.1 hPa whatever that means.
