Day 9... IDK how I feel today

Lets start with yesterday, I went to Houston with the girls to get parts for Bret. We hit traffic coming and going, so we spent a lot of time in the car.

We ate at my favorite place, Panara Bread.

I am pretty proud of myself, I had clam chowder. About a cup of it with no bread. But I was not thinking and when I did my drink I forgot about the straw. :(

So I was sore from sitting in the car for so long and gassy from the straw. Not a good mix.

I actually went home and took some gas-x and some pain meds I was so miserable.

Now I wake up this morning and I was hungry. So I went and got me some yogurt and ate that slowly. Plus I'm drinking my water and IDK if its the water or if it was the yogurt, but I feel nauseated. Maybe I need to get up and move around, that might make my stomach settle down. Who knows.

 

I am just tired of the dizzy feeling that keeps coming and going. I have always hated feeling light headed, and this is not cutting it.

I think I am going to go get me some chewable multivitamins. I originally had a liquid multivitamin, and it was very very NASTY and strong. Just the smell made me feel ill, and that was before the surgery. I could not imagine trying to take it after.

 

I also have to start getting ready for Fathers Day tomorrow. I'm not sure what I am going to get DH, but I have a general idea.

He wants a BBQ, and I'm not looking forward to that, I'm trying to think of things I could actually eat. lol Since I am still on the stage 2 liquids I am thinking SOUP....sigh.

 

Right now I think I would kill someone for some fish. Just some baked fish, I literally dreamed about it last night!! But Next week makes week 2 and I can go to smooshies. So I am looking forward to some potatoes, or some eggs!

 

Hope everyone has a great day! And to all you awesome dad's, HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!

Sorry you felt so bad. I only have chewable vitamins and minerals. I have fish oil, fiber, D, B12 etc. I do have liquid colace and powder miralax from the doctor which I add to drinks.

You could try some meclizine it is in Dramamine, but there are two different types make sure you get the one with the ingredient meclizine in it. It is for dizziness and it won't make you tired if you get the right one. At least it never did me. I think it says non-drowsy. I have vertigo so I take it for the dizziness. If you can't find the Dramamine with it the other anti-dizzy meds should have it, just look at the ingredients. Hope you feel better. If your really desperate you could get any of the anti-dizzy meds, I just suggest meclizine because it is what the Dr.'s prescribe, and it works the best.

I am so sorry...sounds like you did a lot and just with the mix of things...they didn't sit right with you:( Try the Dramamine and see if that helps...I know what you mean about Father's Day, my husband wants lox and bagels for breakfast ( I love BAGELS!!!!), but I am on day 3 and I need to be successful so I am trying to stay strong, lol. Plus my daughter is sick, so I am getting out of the dinner thing;) Hang in there, you are doing great and it will get better!
