So, I just had the second nerve-block shot for my head yesterday.

My experience between the two shots has been terrible.

Last week,  a day after my first shot, my head was tender to touch and overall, more painful than before the shot. This and persistent nausea persisted for about 4 days.

Last night, I couldn’t sleep because I was freezing- but every time I woke up, I was covered with sweat. Sorry for the not-so-pretty image. Don’t dwell on it. It’s just like my body lost its ability to maintain temperature control.

Same sort of head pain and nausea, plus just overall exhausted by the lack of sleep.

I am very worried that I am not going in the right direction. One thing that people have hinted at is a potential thyroid problem.

Shout out to my blood relatives- any of you know of someone in the family with migraine or thyroid issues?

On a happier note, I found a snake in the house this morning. I think he’s an Eastern Worm Snake, but generally they are found in Southern Carolina. Apparently, NOT ANY MORE!!  This is the third one I have come across (the others were outside, thankfully) which I think helped me NOT flip out as I saw it slither it’s 5 inch body across my tile floor.

Kinda cute, for a snake. Apparently they only grow up to 15 inches long and are harmless to humans.

I think he’s growing on me. Maybe Jared will let me keep him and call him Pinky. 😉
