First I had that headache this morning.
Then my leg was sore all day.
Now I'm in the middle of my SECOND occular migraine since getting home from school.
This one is on the left side. The last one was on the right side, like 95% of mine are.
Am I just falling apart or something?
I've got a doctor's appointment on Thursday with our pretty blond doctor because when I went in a week and a half ago with what I was sure was a UTI they had me pee in a cup. The results came in the mail last week and nothing grew in the culture, but there was a "large amount of blood." Joy. No, that doesn't stress me out at all. NEVER google medical symptoms. It's either a UTI, a kidney stone, or I have cancer and I'm going to die. If those are my choices, do I get to pick which one?
*sigh*
Time to go to be before something else on my body goes haywire!

It's almost never lupus.

As in chances are it is the most simple explanation - which in your case would be a UTI, given you went in thinking you had a UTI. Pee in a cup for a UTI? I think I have always just listed the symptoms and been handed the meds!

I hope your sleep took care of your headache.

Seconded.

Googling medical symptoms is scary as hell! :{

Almost?! The line is "It's never lupus."
You've never had to pee in a cup for a UTI? I always have!
No headache when I went to sleep, just the shiny lights of the occular migraine.

Pooh on the migraine - hope it all goes away soon.

heh on the "almost" - I know, I know, except I actually knew somebody with an autoimmune disease who lost all her hair, so I cannot say "never". :-(

BUT with you this is NOT LUPUS. ^_^

On a side note, I feel horrible when I google medical symptoms, so I just don't. If I have something, I tend to ask [livejournal.com profile] oed_1 to google it for me, and then he filters the nonsense out for me.
