Today has been a little rough. First, I felt like my alarm clock went off this morning when it was actually still the middle of the night. So I will be going to bed early tonight!!

This afternoon, I felt that all too familiar and very unwelcome feeling creeping into my head. It’s so hard to explain – it’s pressure without pain, an unsettled feeling without necessarily being dizzy and a full feeling without congestion. But most of all, it’s like you just took a stupid pill.

Of course, at work today I had a lot of analytical type work and proofreading to do. I swear I read this one sentence in an article 15 times and I could not decide if it was grammatically correct. To show you just how stupid this crap makes me when it hits, I was struggling over whether I should be using “is”  or “are”. I finally gave up and asked someone else to read it and tell me. I hate doing that because then I look like an idiot and no one really understands what Lyme does to my brain but I had a deadline so I just sucked it up.

Then I could not for the life of me remember the name of a person who works with me. I was trying to get her attention and that’s a little difficult when you can’t recall the person’s name! And this is a name I should know – I interact with her daily. I finally was able to get her attention but I didn’t remember her name until I was in the car on my way home. All I knew was the letter it started it with and for the first few minutes when I was trying to remember it, I couldn’t even think of that.

I hope this passes quickly. But I’m not sure what to expect with this especially with adding another drop every other day. I may be on a much slower schedule of increasing the dosage if this is what I have to deal with every day with it.

I can’t wait to work from home this week so I don’t have to worry about looking like an idiot in front of everyone!
