Zombie

Posted to Exercise category

I did some yoga this morning for the first time in about a week, partly to try to work loose a muscle cramp up between my shoulder blades that gets annoyed by the mousing I do at work.

I have been feeling ... strange ... for the past couple of weeks. Hot flashes. Cold flashes. Low-grade headaches. A sort of swimmy sensation that isn't quite being dizzy, but isn't really not being dizzy, either.

And a sort of fading in and out that isn't quite dozing off and taking naps. But in the evenngs I suddenly find I've lost 20 minutes of the TV show that's running in the background and the screensaver on my laptop has kicked in. I don't think I've faded out at work (I hope) the focus there seems to mostly be enough to prevent it.

It isn't exactly lack of sleep. Last night I staggered to bed at about 9:30 after one of the fadeouts, but I just seemed to have fadeouts in reverse. I kept waking up every hour or so. Though some of that was the hot and cold flashes.

There's stuff I need to do around the house and stuff I should be working on for the comapany that isn't getting done. I think I'm going to make an appointment with my acupuncturist: regular medicine doesn't do well with symptoms that are this squishy.
