Compartment 14B

And my arthritis is acting up, and.... 2005-05-04 - 1:59 p.m. Third straight day battling a migraine. Is this Clomid-related? I have no idea. Certainly it started out weather-related but is that still the cause? I was smart enough to get up and take my medication a couple of hours before I needed to leave the house so I�m now at work and feeling relatively OK. I also know I need to re-fill my prescription soon since I only have one Maxalt* tablet left. I�ve noticed in the last 16 hours or so that my left ear/eustachian tube hurts a bit when I swallow. Of course, yesterday on a terrible daytime TV show they were talking about ear infections so maybe it�s, pardon the pun, all in my head. I�ve noticed in the past though that thinking of something will, in fact, conjure it up in short order. Gee, I haven�t had a migraine this cycle! Wow, I�m so glad I haven�t had a urinary tract infection in months! And then� baboom! There it is! And it�s not like it�s psychosomatic � I do indeed get confirmation of white blood cells in my urine dips in the latter case. (Am I dooming myself just because I�m writing about it now? I sure hope not.) So, I still don�t know if I�m getting side effects from the Clomid. Did I feel warm because I was exerting myself? Because I�m coming down with something? Or is it one of those �hot flashes� that could be a side effect? I suppose that that means my strategy of taking them just before bedtime is working. Man, listen to me cataloguing my aches and pains like I was everybody�s geriatric, least favourite aunt. Hopefully tomorrow I can be more upbeat. --------------------------------- *Hey, I�ve discovered I have a �tell� if I�m on Maxalt � my lips turn blue. Sometimes this is an effect of dehydration as well, but since Maxalt causes dehydration� well, let�s just say that when my husband came home yesterday he took one look at me and ordered me to drink something.
