For reasons, I couldn’t join at the same time as others. I’m in the middle of it now and have a conundrum. At 3am this morning,~30 hours in, I get a crazy migraine. Normally I treat those with ibuprofen (which requires food) so instead, I pop a Vicodin (leftover from some dental work a few years ago that I keep as a backup of ibuprofen doesn’t work). That only kind of works, and I mostly don’t sleep for the next several hours. I finally get out of bed and shower - get nauseous - vomit - lay back down. Get back up and try to get ready for work - get nauseous- vomit. So here I am 38 hours in. Head pounding, nauseous (a nice sidecar to migraines) trying to decide if this is in any way related to blood sugar or if it has nothing to do with the fast at all and to power through.

Ugh.
