I called out of work today because I woke up at four am with a migraine so bad I threw up. It was wretched. I have been mainlining Imatrex, ibuprofen, and caffeine day in between trying to rest with my eyes closed.

1 Clingy Kitty Boy

Spock is super clingy tonight. I’m not feeling super great; just another headache and general fatigue issue. I can’t wait for Friday’s appointment with the hematologist, even if I’m nervous. Despite my tattoos, I’m not fantastic with needles being used to inject stuff into me.
