My head is different
Pausing to read the title could be misleading, or lead to philosophical dissertations or simply ask, sorry but why is your head different?
Actually it’s not really my head that’s different, it’s my headache,
It all started last Saturday. A severe cold accompanied by a stinging sore throat that was getting worse and worse. For the sake of scruple, I also swab for the covid with a negative result. So I think it must have been the biting cold of the hostile country that annoyed me. In the evening I take a tachipirina and go to sleep.
On Sunday I wake up more tired than ever (considering that I woke up several times during the night with a sore throat and a cold). I have breakfast but I’m sleepy and cold … I arm myself with the cover to reach the sofa and lie there all day long. Which I obviously do (my laziness always accompanies, like the desire to hibernate).
I’m tired but I think I’ll recover when my head starts to hurt in the early afternoon. Here we are at the point.
Headaches for someone who has had meningitis and who has an autoimmune disease of the pachymeninges is not a funny thing. but not at all.
My head is different because there have been two surgeries and two biopsies, because I’ve gone deaf and because at the slightest hint of headache or even insignificant pain I panic completely.
And I also believe not!
The first thing is to try to understand what kind of headache (hammer, pulsating, squeezing). Then locate where (at the nape of the neck and behind the ears for me it’s full red code).
The headache was everywhere but the one that hammers your head, in short, it didn’t seem like the headache of an “illness” that reactivates but you never know. I take tachipirina but it doesn’t go away at all (bad sign).
My madness prevails over common sense, so I start crying, looking for a flight to go to Milan to my doctor as soon as possible, I take another tachypirine. I also think that in short I’m undergoing therapy with two different types of immunosuppressants (last year it was reactivated in a phase in which I was not covered with both immunosuppressants). I go to bed with another tachypirine and with the fear of falling back into the abyss.
Monday I wake up and I still have a bit of a headache, I get back to bed and slowly it passes.
I took full rest days, closed in the heat, sofa, blanket and TV. My head is different and needs special care and attention.
On the other hand, I’m given to TV series.. I’ve seen a lot of them. reviews and/or suggestions in the next article
