I just noticed yesterday that what used to be Eckerd's Drugs is a CVS. It's strangely disorienting, like I was whisked to a different part of the country while I wasn't paying attention.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

But call your doctor anyway Susan. Just in case.

It could also be a migraine coming on, which would certainly be exacerbated by your recent car stress.

It that case, it could definitely be sinus. In addition to Teppy's remedies, try breathing steam and lying down with a hot washcloth on your face.

I'm such a schmoop. I had TLC on in the background and Perfect Proposal was on. The guy was an animator who made a cartoon proposing to his GF.
So. Damn. Cute.

K, it wasn't double-post schmoopy.

Yup, and you can do this without consulting your doctor (i.e., if it's something else, like a migraine, a hot washcloth won't cause any adverse effects, but sinus meds can constrict your blood vessels and might make a migraine worse).

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Hmm. I've never had a migraine in my life.
I'm eating a banana and a carton of yogurt, and drinking a big glass of water, just to feel like I'm doing something.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
it seems more concentrated around my forehead, cheekbones, and nose--could it be sinuses even if I'm not experiencing any congestion?
That def. sounds like sinus. Teppy is wise. Follow her directions.
With calcium, the numbness/tingling typically happens around your mouth. (I am hypoparathyroid and I take 2000mg of calcium every day because of my whacked calcium, that's why I know the signs. I can tell if I've skipped some pills because my face starts tingling. If I take a couple of calcium pills, it goes away.)

Susan, read this Q&A -- though you don't have all the symptoms this woman has (she has facial numbness as well as an earache and a tingling tongue), it sounds like your symptoms: [link]
