Discharged and home, even if not comfy at the moment. But you should have seen the shock I experienced when I walked out . . . the waiting room that was pure hell yesterday, wall to wall sick people, standing room only . . . was half empty today. It was a stunning contrast, I had to stand and stare in disbelief for a moment, until one surly patient gave me a dirty look.
Anyway, talked with a doctor today, they did a cat scan with contrast today, found nothing and sent me home with a prescription and a referral for a neurologist. I think he considers it a cluster headache, and who knows why they happen. Gave me some Fioricet but it better start working better than this because I’m hurting right now. Regular extra strength Tylenol is waiting in the wings ready and able to carry the ball.

I've ridden my tandem to the Hershey factory and toured it.

When your regimen is too hardcore for LAJ , it's hardcore.

Yes, thanks Hummer. Going to visit a neurologist to get an opinion, this is not the first time an ER doc threw up his hands. I think they consider headaches an inevitable part of life.

I do wish these episodes were somehow predictable so I could do something to avoid them.

Daughter 1 started job here on Monday.

It’s certainly one of the top chocolate places in the USA.

I get the debilitating head aches maybe once a year, but they’ve never (knock on wood) lasted more than half a day so it must be quite a *****storm you must be going thru right now.

The sugar, fat, grain, nut-free diet. What's left? Rice cakes and sweet potatoes?
