At my job, I have to cover all shifts when I can't find anyone else to cover them. Recently, during this cycle I'm on now, I worked 10 hours during the day, went home for 7 and went back and worked a 14 hour graveyard. I finally went to bed about 1:00 in the afternoon. It was horrible!!! Every 1 1/2 to 2 hours, I was up with a headache. This went on all afternoon and all night. I get the majority of my headaches at night, so thought I had it made when I didn't get any at work that night...but boy did it make up for it when I went to bed the next day. Was the worst day and night of my life. I'm sure everyone is different, but shift work doesn't do anything with mine....it's just sleeping.
