Last Friday morning at 3:30am my father, his best friend, my cousin and I headed out to Reno, Nevada for the gigantic gun show held at the Grand Sierra Hotel & Casino Resort. To be honest, I couldn't quite concentrate on everything that the show had to offer due to the vision in my left eye not being 100% yet. It kept catching gleaming lights and shine which made everything seem pretty blurry. That night after dinner I began feeling nauseous and weird which I chalked up to the altitude but it's clear today as I sit in bed when I SHOULD BE AT WORK, that I must have caught a stomach bug of some sort. I haven't eaten since Saturday night and (dare I admit) had a little accident in bed Sunday night. (Gross, I know) Needless, to say I did not go to work Monday. I got up this morning, took a shower, began doing my make up and BOOM... had to run to the restroom again. I emailed work AGAIN and let them know that I wasn't going to make it. ugh... 
In the midst of this bug, I have been inconsistent with the the road back program. I've not drank anything, I've not eaten anything, thus taking those supplements have neither made it into my body. I did decrease another 10% in last nights dose as my pills have already been tapered ahead of time. I've had a headache that comes and goes, I had to take 1mg of Ativan on Friday night and .5mg Saturday. Looking back, I'm not sure that I could tell the difference between anxiety nausea and stomach bug nausea. The entire weekend was a blur. 
I've just now had some Gatorade and bread. I have not taken any supplements yet, and I'm hoping that I can get back on schedule tomorrow morning. I'm approximately 4 days into this bug so I should be able to identify WD symptoms better tomorrow. 
Okay, as I've been doing for a majority of the last 5 days, I'm going back to sleep. Pray that the bread and Gatorade stay put!

xoxo
