I might have overdone my cross stitching.
I think a muscle in my neck (behind the right ear) is inflamed. It comes with a general, low-grade head ache and if I cough/sneeze/bend forward it hurts above my right eye. Monday was the worst, even with painkiller I felt the pain. Since then it's a bit better, though this morning my right ear is joining in. It isn't painful, it feel a bit numb and buzzy.
Considering the attitude of Dutch doctors ("take some paracetamol and if it isn't better in two weeks you can make another appointment") I'm not going to contact my doctor's office yet. Unless it gets worse in the coming days or if there isn't any improvement by Monday I'll see what happens. Mind you, with my history with GPs they probably say it's stress/anxiety.
It's my own fault; I have been cross stitching a lot because I'm just so fed up with my current project and want to finish it ASAP. So for now: no cross stitching or any crafts for that matter. It'll give me a chance to finish my book and maybe do some light gaming.
