A headache came knocking at my head’s door and demanded to be let in. A Biogesic tablet and a nap didn’t banish it, and a second tablet didn’t do any good either.

I stayed at home, curled up into a little ball, whimpering. That damn headache continued to make its presence felt, and kept pushing against the walls of my skull. My body seems to be subjecting me to a lot of pain recently.
