Oh, how nice of you but I'm doing okay and just tired of having a headache. I would love some of your chicken soup - sounds wonderful.
I'm calling the ENT tomorrow for sure unless I'm 75% better.

Hope you can get some sleep tonight. |
But I've read caffeine does cause headaches in some people, so your point was valid and well taken. Whenever I have one of these headaches, I just crave hot coffee and hot tea, things with caffeine in them. And the headache medicine that helps the most, that Esgic stuff, has some caffeine in it. Normally it does the trick right away but not this time which is why I asked what everybody does for bad headaches. Really tired of this - I've never had a headache last this long so it's the doctor for me if it's not all but gone tomorrow. It must be sinus related but the doctor can look into my nostrils and see if it's inflamed and swollen and tap on my face and all that stuff they do and if he thinks it's not, we need to look elsewhere. I can' wait to be headache free though it is better tonight.
