Okay, so...I was taking decongestant and tylenol every 4-5 hours yesterday, which mostly kept it at bay. What do you think happened when I went to bed?
Why, yes. I did not take pills whilst sleeping. And I woke up about four and a half hours after I went to sleep, aching and stuffed up. Took a decongestant, 45 minutes later no effect. Came downstairs, drank water, and slept on the floor down here so I could toss and turn and be restless.
For a good part of the night, I would wake up when the blanket slipped. If it was over my nose, it got too stuffy and I couldn't sleep. If it wasn't over my eyes and temples, they got chilled just enough to start aching oddly. Either way I woke up....
My throat hurts, my head hurts, I'm stiff, I'm tired. I'm not going to work.
I called my boss. He answered. I said, "Hi, it's Laura."
He said, "Hi. You sound like you're going to stay home this morning."
I sound about as bad as I feel maybe even a bit worse. Jeesh!
