Horrible Horrible day

I suppose this blog should include good days as well as bad days. Crazy to think morning sickness pretty much kicked in immediately for me. I've never actually been sick yet, but there's a constant nausea. My appetite has gone (so unusual for me!) and I'm so damn exhausted all the time.

Today was pretty bad after the pavements and roads being drilled up all night outside my flat last night, I had the worst sleep. Followed by some pretty awful nights sleep previous to that. Drilling still going too so tonight could be worse!!

Got sent home from work today after a very bad dizzy spell, blind spots and flashing lights in my eyes. Could not understand what was going on or even string a sentence together. Thankfully Kenny came and got me and took me to the doctors. Good thing too as on the way my arm and face went totally numb. I burst into tears thinking I was having a stroke! Crazy.

The doctor thinks a mix of hormones, lack of food and sleep has contributed to a very strange and quick migraine. Thankfully it's passed. I also got prescribed anti-sickness tablets as I feelso nauseous all the time it's put me off my food. And my tests showed I'm ever so slightly starved of nutrition. Thankfully i've been taking folic acid and vitamins so that will ahve helped at least.

So, I got a 50 min nap before being woken up by more drilling and then managed to gather enough energy to do a shop. Got lots of healthy little cereal bars/raisins/fruit snacks to have on hand at all times. And I managed a bowl of fresh tomato soup, some bread and a pudding. Feel tons better for it.

Now....off to pee for the 298479847th time today. Joy! :o)
