Posted here for traffic.
Every few months or so, I have the worst period pain imaginable. Think doubled over on the floor crying like a baby levels of pain, which tends to last for two days in my experience.
Today is one of these days. I'm currently pretty okay thanks to a high dose prescription painkillers. But I've one pill left and the night ahead of me.
What worried me more is that I'm meant to be on a 7am flight for work tomorrow morning. I've not managed to pack my bag or book my cab yet, as the painkillers I'm on make me so drowsy and tired. I've no chance to get my prescription refilled before flying and I'm absolutely dreading tomorrow - both because I'll be in excruciating pain and because I'm really afraid of vomiting in a crucial meeting.
Calling in sick is sadly absolutely not an option. Too much at stake.
Anyone out there with any experience and, more importantly, emergency survival tips?
