hemiplegic migraine hit hard, but not in the expected way. the usual left paralysis, some weird breathing heart rate issues. the light pain. the head pain. the insomnia.
the day after i can usually work, slowly, with some soft music. today i sat down, was thinking on something a bit taxing and felt painful zaps through my head. a colleague wanted to call on something and i realised i could barely find the words in type, let alone speech.
I've ended up browsing people's workstation photos and bookshelves, and hoping that this longer rest period isn't a sign of something worse permanent
