Is It Just Oxygen?

Thursday, December 12, 2024

This is why it's so FRUSTRATING.

Yesterday was as much of a copy of Tuesday as I could make it, with the exception of the exercise.  I ate an almost identical menu.  Followed the same routine.  I went to bed about the same time, except this time I fell asleep promptly.  I was hoping for a repeat of yesterday morning.  Did I get it?

Aw HELL naw.

Instead, I slept poorly, woke up at 5:00 feeling awful, slept fitfully in the recliner until 7:30 when I could no longer delay things because I needed to be at work.  The complete opposite of yesterday morning.

Is it just oxygen?  I woke up with what a I call a low-ox headache, which is dull and annoying but goes away pretty quickly once I get up.  It's like I'm being starved of oxygen in my sleep.  Which I suppose is possible.  One thing that was different is that my sinuses were irritated and I was having difficulty getting enough air through my nose when I went to sleep.  This isn't super unusual.  Is it such a thing to have that be the equivalent of sleep apnea?  I dunno but I think I'm going to do some research because this seems a lot like that but I didn't have sleep apnea when I did a sleep study years ago.

Argh.  I was hopeful that things were turning the corner.  I loved being able to get going early for once.

Breakfast:  2 CF sausage patties, orange juice, coffee

Last of the sausage for this week.  May be time to restock.

Lunch:  Soup and mash, 2 slices Sargento aged swiss cheese

Fresh batch of soup, good as always.

Dinner:  Home tacos, 12 oz All Day IPA, home popcorn, chocolate milk

Very tasty.  Details the same as the last couple days.  Here's hoping for some good sleep.

Exercise:  Nope.  See above.
