I've been drinking lime water all day, but then suddenly after supper when I refilled my glass, the water suddenly didn't taste right.

Thought it was the lime sitting in the glass all day making it taste funny, so I dimped the lime and drank some more water.

Still didn't taste right.

Mike tasted it too, and at first he didn't think anything was wrong, so I figured it was my tastebuds.

Finally he said there was something funny--it just tasted salty or weird or something.

We have well water, and we had a filtration system put in awhile back. I wondered if that was going bad on us or something--great onChristmas Eve of all times, and we're leaving for vacation the day after Christmas.

Anyway, I've been feeling weirder than usual for the past couple hours, and now I'm freaking that I poisoned myself with our tainted-or-whatever water.

Can't even go to the store to buy some bottled water, because htey're all closed now.

Geez, like I need anything else going wrong.

I'm really ill today, neuro like sx.

My head hurts/is numb on the left side, and my stomach is off. I feel hungry, but as soon as I look at food, I feel sick.

Hubby was awake half the night not feeling well either, so it wasn't just me.

He thinks something went funny with the water purifier, but it seems to be okay now.

Still, I've hardly drank anything today as far as water.

Coffee seemed okay this AM, but I still didn't drink much.
