Augh. It's middle of the night and I'm up with... I don't know what. Heartburn? I took a pill just before going to sleep and didn't wash it down with anything and now I have an extremely unpleasant pressury-burny thing in my esophagus. I also had an unfamiliar indian dish for dinner, but that was like 3 &1/2 hours before going to bed and it didn't seem to be bothering me at all. Now I've drunk a full bottle of water and am almost to the end of water I can drink without making tea of it. I've had a rice bar and some tostitoes (to get more water down, mainly) and still feel horrible. ... Having milk, now.

Damn. After a full hour up, 20oz water and a quart of milk, I'm starting to feel like I might not die. Hopefully will go back to bed soon. To dream of peeing for the rest of the night, I'm sure.

As an aside, I thought I had a temp, so took it - 97.6F. Exactly a degree below normal when I feel like my forehead is burning. I wish I could remember to monitor it when I feel fine.

Apparently last night's discomfort (read 'repeated bouts of whimpering in pain on the bathroom floor waiting to throw up') was heartburn. I've now bought myself some Maalox in fear of that ever happening again. Eor thinks that stuff doesn't work, but if there had been anything at all I could have tried last night, I would have. Goat milk apparently did the trick for me, after a quart of it.
