Not The Plan

[swestrup]

I was woken after far too little sleep by a splitting headache. Either I somehow got a hangover from a single glass of wine, or its a migraine. Another, chilling possibility is that wine might be a possible new migraine trigger for me because this is not the usual circumstances under which I get a migraine. (Usually it comes from too much sleep after too little, and that hasn't happened here).

I really don't want that to be the case, obviously. Oh, and it was a single glass of white wine, and of a brand which has never previously given me trouble, so I doubt my headache is explainable by sulfites or similar wine-related compounds. In any case I am now up way too early, taking migraine meds and drinking strong coffee.

I went through a wine-trigger-migraine scare late last year. Turned out it was me catching a cold but my body fighting really, really hard. Not that I'm wishing a cold on you, but it's arguably better than it being wine!

Yeah, I'm wondering about a possibility of some sort of cold because Terry just announced he has a sore throat.

Turns out it was the start of Birch Pollen season and its a particularly bad one this year.
