I haven't been this sick in years



Recommended Posts

Woke up yesterday with aches all over. Got the chills so bad that even after two hours I was still shaking. I had fleece sheets, a down blanket, a comforter, and three large fleece blankets on in addition to the t-shirt, extra warm socks and winter pj's. Took a four hour nap. Then last night the endless trips to the bathroom. No vomiting because I haven't been able to eat...use your imagination. I was up every two hours or so. The aches are mostly gone, I alternate between being too warm and now I'm cold. Nothing like the body spasms I was having yesterday though. Bathroom issues haven't resolved...I'm taking kaopectate. I hope this gets resolved soon. Pretty sure I have a strain of the stomach flu. ???? Wiping all surfaces with Lysol! I did finally eat something today because the one Protein Shake I had yesterday did not help my stomach issues. I've had a medium banana and two pieces of toast - not at the same time. Also a cup of tea and some Water. I can't remember the last time I was this sick. I hope I'm better tomorrow because I don't have a lot of vacation left and I'd really hate to use a day....but if I feel this lousy I will.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
