The side effects start April 10, 2008

Just like last time I have gotten the Lupron headache.  It started on-and-off on Tuesday when my mom and I went up to the outlet mall to go shopping.  I thought I was maybe a little dehydrated.  But it came back yesterday and today it feels like it isn’t going to go away.  I also woke up twice in the middle of the night absolutely drenched in sweat.

Maybe it was also partly the stress of my mom’s visit… I was doing fine the first day.  I was very patient when she had to look at every item of clothing in every store we went into for close to 7 hours.  But yesterday she started driving me up a wall, as usual.  She mis-hears, mis-understands and just doesn’t get half the things you say to her, and then looks at you like you’re crazy when she is the one with the problem.  Now I have the house back to myself though, so that is good. 

I am off to the dentist in a few minutes - where I tend to break out in hives.  And then this afternoon  I have a meeting with a new, temporary, client which might be a little stressful too.  I think she is going to be kind of a difficult client…very picky with “food restrictions” that are mostly in her head and always trying to get something for nothing – this is what I understand from her current personal chef. 

But, then, tomorrow I have an ultrasound scheduled in the morning and then after that hopefully everything will be smooth sailing – a massage and manicure/pedicure before our trip to Miami which should be mostly just relaxing for me.  Just have to get through one more 24-hour period before things are looking better stress-level-wise.  Hopefully my headache will go away, but I think it might be here to stay for a few days based on my experience with the last cycle.

    That really sucks about the headaches, and then to have to deal with drama on top of it… I hope the ultrasound goes well!
