Absolutely - if you can - ask someone you trust (spouse, mother-in-law, friend, neighbor) if they'll watch the baby for a few hours. (If you're nursing-pump a bottle) - Tell them you're feeling bad %26amp; are exhausted - that you will be at home - but are turning off the phone (do it) - and will call when you get up. Eat something healthy - even a bowl of cereal, drink a glass of water (in case you're a little dehydrated) - Take 1/2 of a Tylenol PM (tablet) - so you can sleep without dreaming - (should last for 3-4 hours) - darken your bedroom - and take a nice long nap -- You should feel a million times better when you get up -- take a long shower - eat a small meal ( to keep your blood sugar up) -and drink plenty of water throughout the day. Tylenol PM has the same as Benadryl in it - you may be feeling dizzy if you have fluid from congestion in your ear. Dehydration and low blood sugar can cause the ';yucky'; feeling also - Hopefully, the decongestant, sleep and hydration will have you feeling better --I have been dizzy and gross feeling for a week, I need advice?
Have you had your blood sugar and/or blood pressure checked recently? Your blood sugar could be low, or your blood pressure could be too high or low. Being that you have a six month old that you're responsible for, I would suggest erring on the side of safety. Its better to run to the doctor simply to find out ';nothing is wrong';, than to ignore it simply to find out ';something was horribly wrong.';
