A bitch by a bitch...
I am over all pretty healthy physically. I don't get sick with the bug du jour when everyone else around me is dropping like flies. Pretty much it is only my own body that attacks me. And the random object or person...
I do get these lovely headaches. I have since I was about 13 or 14. They can be irritating to blindingly painful.
I am 5'4, about 140 lbs. I don't smoke, I drink only occasionally. As in I may have had 3 alcoholic beverages this year. My drug experimenting was limited to high school, where I tried speed. I was depressed enough, thank you, no downers needed. I found I also didn't need speed after one try. Same for the one try with pot. I freaked. Lets don't do that again. So what is my point? I am all but immune to pain killers. Such is the joy of my life. People who buy Tylenol baffle me. I consider it a placebo. I take prescription pain killers and HOPE that at some point my headache will lessen. Maybe if I take enough, it will go away, but I don't want to take that much most of the time. (Well, talk to me when I am pissed...) I get a little loopy...but I can still feel the headache...sitting there...I just care a little less about it.
Well...forgive, or don't, my pain induced rambling. The drug induced loopiness hasn't kicked in yet. Maybe I'll be fun later...
I sure hope so.

"I get a little loopy...but I can still feel the headache...sitting there...I just care a little less about it."
You know, I never saw anyone put that into words quite so well as that. I don't have that level of pain every time, but when it's really bad, pills just numb the level of "bother", don't they? In order to truly not hurt, I would have to take enough medication that I wouldn't be functional for two days afterward. *shakes head*
You rest. I'll call in sick to the world for you.
(Ah, if only.)

Just curious, a I know a bit about pain and meds, neurology, and environmental factors.

I occasionally contemplate ice picks...throught the right eye socket. But I'm a whimp. It would make such a mess...

I am one orgasm ahead of you, sweetheart...but thanks for the thought. And it didn't work. This time. Although I am willing to keep trying! Who knows...
