Yes, we are still alive in the Neo/Luky household. Thanks to all who sent well-wishes and to Fishii especially for telling folks we were both under the weather.
Neo's weak, but upright, after days in bed. Flu or something. Me, I just have a chronic sinus infection that goes away, then comes back and kicks me around really good. FINALLY have some antibiotics, so maybe I will recover one of these days.
Made the bad mistake yesterday of taking a half a tablet of hubby's pain meds because my sinus headache was so bad. He offered it up, and I wanted some relief. Didn't think about the fact that I can't tolerate any opiate, really. Years ago, I had a bout of bronchitis and the cough syrup I was prescribed had codeine in it. I started feeling super weird--a bad kind of high. The only way I could describe it was I turned my head and everything I'd seen in the head turn kind of caught up with my vision and my brain a few seconds later. And that was when I turned my head slowly. Eventually, I was barfing my toes up. And then I did that the rest of the day.
Last night, I managed to maintain my dinner, but I felt super nauseous and had a little bit of that bad high going on. Didn't think about the pain med--even a sliver of it--having the opiates in them that would wallop me.
I think I'm completely safe from ever becoming an addict. Ha. Anyway--feeling better today, so far, though I'm going to need to catch up on sleep eventually. Stayed up feeling weird most of the night and pressing my lips together, which, for some reason keeps me from barfing.
Probably should have 'spoilered' this whole blog, huh? Gross or what?!? I think I've hit the "Oy, my sciatica" stage of geezerdom far too early in life.
Thanks for reading it anyway. You're brave! ha.
