Health update

I have a headache today. Been nagging at me since about 9 this morning. Took Tylenol at 11, but haven't had a chance to take anything since then, and it has gotten worse. So I just took more Tylenol. But all that reminded me that I haven't reported on my dizziness. So I will.
I'm not so dizzy anymore. Saw the doctor, he reduced my blood pressure med dose by half, and that evidently did it. The dizzies were caused by sudden drops in blood pressure. I go for a recheck next Tuesday.
I took a 10 day course of penicillin and that seems to have knocked out the head/chest cold. I needed to use my asthma inhaler for a few more days, just once or twice a day, but I haven't needed that most of this week. So except for this annoying headache, I'm much better. And the headache is just one of those things, it'll go away tonight or tomorrow and I'll be great. Just in case you were wondering.

Ibuprofen works best for me with the occasional headaches....I'm lucky that way, I have very few. Wishing you a healthier weekend.

Hang tight baby. It's just a matter of time before the good stuff happens again.

Good luck with the headache. I've had a migraine for most of today. It's not one of those, is it?
