Happy New Years!

I have been sleeping a lot today, but no, sorry, I’m not feeling any better.

I need some advice. Y’all know that I suffer from migraines. Last night after I went to bed, I had, off-and-on, several coughing episodes that left me with a horrible headache. I woke up this AM with my head being absolutely pounded off my shoulders. It had typical migraine symptoms.
It is still following those symptoms.

But it occurred to me, could this be a hang-over? I was not drunk last night. I did have in the course of the evening 2 bloody marys and at midnight the champagne. I’ve drunk that much before (and actually drunk much more) with no difficulties. It is just the coincidence of the evening followed by the headache which makes me wonder. If it is a hang-over, how long will it last?

First, Happy New Year!

Second - I am not a doctor or a nurse and I do not play either on any TV commercials, but I think that you should go to the ER.

I’m reluctant to say this because I, for one, can’t stand going to the doctor because they always want to give me medication and I won’t take it, so it’s a waste of their time and my money. However, I really think you need to have both the cough and the headache looked into.

Jemian, I hope you’re feeling somewhat better today. I had heard a report on Fox that the UK has been experiencing a flu that is just awful - they called it “like a plague.” Could you have that, I wonder?

There was no shot for it, as it was a surprise gift this year.

Also said it had made it’s way to the US. I heard this about a month ago.
