Funny turn

I'm feeling quite good today but for a slightly worrying reason. Last night after dinner, I developed a god-awful headache, mostly on the right hand side of my head. It was so bad I decided to pop a couple of paracetamol. This already had me slightly concerned as I'd had a similar headache only on Thursday and I don't normally have problems that often. I decided to lounge on the sofa and wait for the paracetamol to kick in and Cassie very kindly joined me, snuggling up and lying her head on my breast :) But the paracetamol didn't seem to kick. After a couple of hours I decided to get up and run a bath, after which I would go to bed. I changed into my dressing gown and went to run the bathwater. I'd just started it going when I suddenly felt extremely weak and dizzy. My muscles suddenly felt really heavy, as if I'd been working them really hard all day and I felt light headed. I got into the bath and after 5-10 mins or so the feeling passed, just leaving me feeling very tired. As a result, I got a very early night so I'm not tired this morning for a change, which is nice, but I do have residual worried feelings. Almost certainly, these are not justified (I tend to over-react to this type of thing) but still. I guess the answer is to keep an eye on my body over the next couple of weeks and see if any other problems crop up...
