Took the red (and yellow) pill, still in the matrix

Posted in Health at 4:13 am by emerym

My sister and I got to see the Matrix films on Saturday. The IMAX format rocks!

Like the consultant my sister told me that I should go back on the medication. She thought that the pain was probably caused by something else.  I didn’t take any Saturday, by Sunday morning I felt tired but otherwise okay.  I took one Sunday night and went to bed. I wish I hadn’t.

3AM I woke with a major headache and pain in the arms again. I took some paracetamol and called NHS Direct.  I wish I’d not taken the paracetamol, it turns out I can take paracetamol and codean, which I have from when I had neck problems ages ago.  I also have other pain killers, I’m told in my condition they could have done me a lot of harm, so I’m glad I checked. As they don’t expire until 2009 I’d kept them all.  I’ve now got to wait until 8AM before I can take anything else.

Due the thumping head it’s taken me ages to put this post together but it’s now 5AM, an hour killed.  What to do for the next three hours…  I really hope the codean helps.
