EDIT: Based on feedback from a number of people, I tried electrolyte supplements and all was well today. It looks like I was drinking enough water, but not enough electrolytes.

Hey poaler bears, I want to pick your brains. The last two days I woke up feeling up feeling like I had a nasty hangover (severe headache, nausea, sensitivity to light, etc)...but without the drinking to explain it. I had one beer Monday night, and nothing aside from water last night. I drink plenty of water so being dehydrated would be strange, I'm not diabetic, I dont have sleep apnea, and I'm not sick (I feel fine during the day).

The symptoms are exactly what I'd expect to have if I was 22 and at the bar until 3am, not from drinking a glass of water and going to bed at 9pm like a geezer.

Any ideas where to start looking for a cause?

Is it smokey where you live?

Nope, air quality is good.

Not asking you to dox your location, but there was visible smoke all the way on the East Coast like a week ago. The fires haven't died down. Even if you can't see it, the particulate count may be pretty high. My inner ears felt like they had swelled shut for two days.

Are you using a new set of headphones or a new Bluetooth or Wi-Fi device?
