Ahh, much better.

Although the headache is still lurking. I hate these headaches, with a passion. Ordinary paracetamol doesn't do a thing to them, since they're a result of neck strain/tension, so I have to take the Neurofen, which is a muscle relaxant. They can last for days, if I don't get on top of them early. *sighs* The worst ones are when the pain goes from the back of my head right over the top to my eye. *grimaces* That's the sort I had today.

The best thing for them is a neck rub, but BRM is shagged after his class and I don't like to ask when he's so tired. Think I'll head to bed soon, it's probably the best thing. Except the fact I've not been sleeping well is part of the reason why I've got the damn thing in the first place. *grins wryly* I've been getting too excited about my trip to Canada - 17 days to go.

I get those all the time too. I hate 'em.

One thing I've found that helps me, 'cause my nerves are hypersensitive and neckrubs usually just hurt 'cause it feels more like someone's doing a Vulcan Death Pinch or something, is a rice sock.

You can buy 'em, but you can make 'em too, and probably for cheaper. Get a long tube sock (preferably clean of course ^_^) and pour some uncooked rice in it until it's almost full, but still flexible, and sew the end of it shut tightly.

Then, throw it in a microwave for about 2 1/2 minutes (experiment a bit) or until it's nice and hot. It'll deliver nice hot warmth to your neck or whatever body part you put it on.
