I had an aha moment this morning.....but first let me backtrack to the last few weeks.
I've been struggling with two different issues.
The first one is quite worrisome. I've had some headaches. My normal 'yearly migraine' wasn't too surprising? But the headaches have lingered around. Is it sinus pressure? Just a kickback from the migraine a few weeks ago? What could it be???? I know that there has been one or two moments where I've wondered if my blood pressure isn't spiking. (which it has been known to do...and no,I'm NOT on medication for blood pressure). I haven't really thought too much about it...but on occasion it does make me wonder.
The second issue is weird leg cramps. They aren't all that bad, just random cramps. NOt really worrisome, but just odd. It's not normal for me.
I've also been really tired and just not energetic........but that's not really even concerning to me.
So I was having a random conversation this morning with a friend. The friend mentioned a rough night of sleep, and cited leg cramps due to dehydration. Immediately it all became clear. I think I may have literally slapped my forehead with my palm!
Dehydration!
I have been drinking....not much! And when I have been drinking it's diet soda. DUH! I'm dehydrated!!! That got me thinking about the headaches...could they be caused by the serious lack of water????
So water water water......that's my first goal!
