Peri, you suuuuuuuck
I should preface this with the fact that I don't know for sure that this is peri's fault, but it is apparently a known thing so...
Saturday I felt pretty bad at dinner. My right hip hurt like crazy and I had cramping, but not in my usual way. Took some meds, bemoaning my inability to take the benadryl I was pretty sure would fo the trick, and hoped for the best. Had mh little after dinner nap before work and while lying down I felt pretty good. Walking wasn't terrible. Sitting wasn't a good time. Still, I had hope based on the fact that I don't really sit much at work. I forgot to factor in the sitting in the car on the way to work.
I made it pretty much exactly two hours before having to go home because I was about to cry from the pain. Had it been an A Saturday, I might have lasted longer because I would have been walking around and not standing up front but it wasn't, so I didn't.
I get home and take my benadryl because now sleep is on the docket. I'm still up for awhile but feel better in longer waves. I eventually ho to sleep and while I do wake up a few times, the psin has receded a lot.
My body gave me an inch,I took a mile. I didn't get up soon enough for pain meds round 2 and paid dearly for that. I also got confirmation that it was period shenanigans. Joy. The Shining reenactment. I messaged my friend I had plans with yo cancel and went about my day, trying various ways to feel better. Mostly sleep and meds, honestly. The fluffy boys were not helpful with the sleep but they did give purrs. Heating pad also helped. Hip still hurts, period is still cropping up to make me want to cry in frustration. I don't like this escalated pain thing, peri. It's not cool.
Typing this on my phone and will fix shit later when sitting isn't annoying.
