Well, that was kind of freaky

At about 9.30 this morning, I developed a blind-spot and I mean that literally. For about 10 minutes, I simply couldn't see what was in the bottom right quarter of my field of vision. It was only when I also started to see flashing lights that I started to think maybe it wasn't eye-related but brain related. When I told a colleague, her immediate reaction was "you're getting a migraine. go home."

Judging by the pain in my head, she was right, although I'm getting off lightly, and it's bearable for the moment. And no, I don't intend to look at the screen for much longer. Even I'm not that daft. Well. Not quite. Probably.

So now I have a whole new exciting field to research - I like to know what's happening to me, especially when it involves brain cells, and if I'm going to get migraines, even mild ones, I want to be ready for it. Research skillz - I has them.

Assuming things done get worse, there will be fic later (thrilling, I know, but try to contain your excitement ;)) and some proof-reading of the tardis_bigbang website. We go live tomorrow and still so much to do!

How's everyone doing? Do drop in to say hi. I'll be here all day, in between headaches...

Yeah, I do seem to be one of the lucky ones who gets them mildly!

Heh, all I had was porridge, so I don't think that's it. Coffee and paracetamol really really helped, so I'll keep my fingers crossed that they go on helping :)
