Think I'm gonna have a lie-down
I have blood sugar problems from time to time, and tend to get crashy if I don't watch it. Generally I do pretty well with this, but last night... oy.
Mostly skipped breakfast yesterday, had a light lunch around 12, and then didn't get home until 8. Grabbed a quick bite (bread) to tide me over while![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ginkgo and I went grocery shopping. Which took a lot longer than I thought. We got home after 10, and by that point it was all I could do to walk straight. (I think I actually passed out in the car at one point - I woke up in a *REALLY* uncomfortable utter-slumped position, and had no idea where I was.)
So 10:30-12 was spent just trying to eat... *anything*. I was nauseated and was having weird pains in my chest and stomach, so the turkey/gruyere sandwich I made was a loss. Ate half of it, put the rest in the fridge.
Now here's the weird part... after I started to recover a bit, I noticed that I was aching. Everywhere. And kept bouncing between sweaty hot and clammy cold. Yup, a fever. Oh, and a splitting headache. Both have continued through today, so I'm heading home from work in a bit.
Oh yeah, one other weird bit - when we were getting into the car at the store, and I was starting to have problems pushing the cart in a straight line, I had an odd sensation in my head (like a *thump*), an extreme light-headed feeling, and then my vision got CRYSTAL FUCKING CLEAR. OMG, I could make out leaves on trees two blocks away. At night. No joke. This lasted for about five minutes. I'd love to have that back.
Edit: Awwwwww, you all *DO* care! :D I'm going to go drop by the internal clinic at 2 when they re-open for non-emergency visits.

Passing out, inability to eat, pains, headache, funky vision ... gracious, you make my blood sugar issues look like minor peckishness. Please give us an update on what they speculate, and then again when the text results come in!
