Back at work today for the first time since Friday. I didn't have to come in, but I was starting to feel really guilty about being at home (Type A personality).
It's day 6, I think, of cold turkey. I'm still having headaches off and on and my dizzy spells have not left me. I also have funky vision, almost like my eyes want to twist or roll around in my head. Not fun! That is such a distraction that when I attempted to go to work yesterday, I backed into the garage door which was not finished going up. I pulled back in and stayed home with a deep chunk of paint gone out of my car. Amazingly enough I haven't gotten upset about, guess I'm just happy that I backed into my garage instead of someone or something else.
I am at my desk in the office though, with lots of support from my colleagues, even offers to drive me somewhere if my spells of vertigo pop up. God bless those supportive friends. My daughter even called after only being at a friends house for an hour to see how I felt, mind you this child is only 11 and she's calling to check up on her mom. That is so not right!!! A child should not have to worry about his/her parent.
My thoughts are with everyone else going through this horrid ordeal!
