I have been in bed for the last three days.
Wednesday night I gave myself my injection of Methotrexate, which I take for psoriatic arthritis. I injected it in a part of my leg that just hurt and felt odd but that is bound to happen I would think.
Thursday morning I woke up and when I blew my nose, and this might be TMI, I blew out a neon color, matching the color of the Methotrexate. I was concerned but thought maybe I was overreacting if I made a big deal of it. Well, the morning went okay and then right around noon I started feeling like crap. I had a horrible migraine, vertigo, my whole body hurt, I was nauseous. I took migraine pills and put an icepack on my head, which was the only thing that helped. David and I both agreed that I could be having a bad reaction to the medication but going to the ER would do nothing except force me to sleep in a noisy, sterile environment instead of my own bed.
Friday morning I woke up and every single joint in my body hurt as did most of my skin. I still had a bad headache and was still a little dizzy. If David even touched my skin it hurt! I slept most of the day and was able to make dinner that night but that was about it. Now I started coughing.
This morning I woke with a nasty, barking cough. I assumed it was some sort of infection based on the phlegm that came out of me (sorry, trying not to be too gross). So I have been sleeping all day again and cough/barking. My body is only slightly hurting and most of my joints seem to be back to their uncomfortable but usual condition.
Thanks for listening. I completed the “Pass the Baton” writing and this and now I am ready for a nap. Send healthy vibes!

Thanks! Yesterday I slept for 2.5 hours and woke up and made dinner immediately while I had energy and felt okay. That was enough for one night though!

Hope you’re feeling better Christine. Take care, keep safe, and keep warm. Drink plenty to keep hydrated and an ice pack on your forehead might help with your migraine. It used to help me sometimes.
