The older I get and the more medicine I have to take, the more I realize that I can't! I just can't do it! I've known for sometime that I just don't do well taking most mediciations as I have such a low tolerance for them. But somehow, I got about 30 bug bites last night while sitting around the fire which led to the most awful night, itching and scratching with NO relief. I finally said that I have to try some Benadrayl around 10 this morning.
BIG MISTAKE! If there is a side effect to any drug, I will have it, especially when it comes to being drowsy. I bought it at a store and drank the child sized dose in the car. Within 10 minutes I could feel the affects. The, I could hardly keep my eyes open affects. I fought myself not to fall asleep, but instead I laid in the grass outside, I laid on the swing, I sat in a chair. The itching did go away, but the "drunk" feeling I was getting was almost worse than the itching.
I took this medicine about 12 hours ago and I can still feel the lingering affects on my system. It's been hard to keep a straight thought in my head today. (being blond might have something to do with that). I have to convience myself to do even the smallest amount of work because the energy is lost within seconds.
I just don't know what I'm going to do if I ever have to take a "real" medicine! I'm screwed!
