This morning I had just finished my cereal and I was tooling around on the internet and talking to Ryan when my nose spontaneously started bleeding. I've had nosebleeds before, so I just grabbed a kleenex, started to pinch my nose and waited a few minutes. When I took the kleenex off, it started bleeding heavier.
After a major WTF moment, I ran to the bathroom and hung my face over the sink. My nose was bleeding more heavily now. It started to clot a little bit, but the blood just kept pouring out of my nose. Now I'm a little scared, as this is worse than the usual nose bleed. Ryan was nice enough to look up and dial the TeleHealth number for me.
After a few minutes of questions, the nurse told me to just keep pinching and see what happens. I did so and after a few MORE minutes, it finally calmed down. Apparently if I have any more nose bleeds like this today, I'm supposed to go to the doctor.
Normally I wouldn't get so scared about stuff like this, but the fact that it wouldn't slow down scared the crap out of me. It shouldn't be an iron level thing, because my prenatal vitamins have iron in them.
So anyway, I can just wonder what the hell just happened and get to work.
......I should have stayed in bed today.........
