So, yesterday started off kind of bad, but not horrible. I almost got all the way to class and realized I forgot my phone and had to go back and get it. So i missed half my first lecture...again. And then in the evening, I skipped lab to take my hubby to a dr appointment because he felt like he was getting a migraine for five days without the migraine ever actually coming. Increasing pressure by the eyes does not sound enjoyable. Thinking they were just going to give him a morphine shot in the ass like usual, I made arrangements for my mom to pick him up and took off for my last class. I then get a call that the dr my husband saw, not his usual dr, wanted him to go to ER for a spinal tap to rule out meningitis.
He does not have meningitis. At least that is a relief. So the ER dr runds some blood tests and a CAT scan to see if its just something else. Meanwhile Mikey is having full blown panic attacks and having increasing difficulty articulating his thoughts. They give him drugs, which apparently didn't fully kick in til this morning, and as he's struggly to explain the pain behind his eyes, they decide to go ahead and do the spinal tap to be safe. Over six hours after we got there we finally leave, only for him to spend the rest of the night throwing up, obviously from the meds.
On the plus side, by boss was not mad when I texted her last night to tell her that I would not be in today. He spent half the day in bed, I slept way later than usual, and honestly I don't think I could have handled work today after that. He's already saying he doesn't think he will go to work tomorrow either, since he ow has a lingering headache and claims his back has been hurting all day. So this brings on a new concern; he doesn't have anymore sick pay and has been out all week.
Tomorrow is another day, and I'm hoping to make the best of it.
