I started this new medication for my back about a week ago. The doctor warned me that it had a couple of significant side effects. The first being it causes sleepiness, although that only lasts for 2 1/2 hours (which is fine, I take it at night so it helps me get to sleep! woo!). The second one was vivid dreams. Until last night I hadn't really noticed this.
I generally remember my dreams, so I hadn't noticed any difference since beginning the new med. Last night, though? Wow!
In my dream I was teaching, subbing. It was in a Kinder class. I remember thinking how can I be teaching if I'm snuggled so warmly into my bed under my awesome down comforter. BUT I was leaning up on my elbow talking to my students who were sitting, apparently, on the floor of my room. Yea. That kind of vivid.
Eventually it woke me up and I re-snuggled under the covers. But it was quite vivid to me. Now I'll be wanting to do my job that way, but unfortunately I don't think it's possible. The principal won't look kindly of me carrying a bed to work everyday. :)
