3 vicodin yesterday. I ignored the small jackhammer behind my eye most of the day until around 4 when I finally took a vicodin an imitrex and lay down in a dark silent room for an hour. I needed another half of vicodin, but I was better. Well enough I thought to go to a play. We left at intermission. If it had been a good play I could've toughed it out. But pain is exhausting. I took another one and a half around 8 and finally took a valium at 11:30 to sleep so I could get to sleep before the pain came back. I had a hard time falling asleep because of this new thing that happens. The jumpy, muscle anxiety (not mental anxiety - although that follows), and a strong pain (like a hunger pain) with nausea. It's hit in the middle of the night about four or five times and I have to get up, eat something and once had to take a valium. It's like something stepped on my accelerator - except my heart isn't racing. Maybe the B12 jacked up my metabolsim? or the thyroid pills? I'm loathe to jump up a notch on the thyroid like the doctor wants me to... Anyway, I feel good today. I slept in until 8:40. I will go visit my Aunt Grace at the asstd living place after I hit the gym.
