Just Sick....

Last night I start to get pains all over my body. It's hard to describe, its like muscle spasms all over. I can't sit up or ill feel like my muscles are being pulled In opposite directions. I sat completely up and was nauseous so I laid back down. I'm so weak I keep moving from side to side, I went to sleep for like 30 min got up to throbbing In my arms and legs and I'm freezing. The heat is on 85 and I'm just hurting. I'm 10 days out has anyone else had this feeling.

I'm sorry you feel bad! Have you taken your temperature? It sounds like you may be running a fever.

Have you been getting enough liquids? Maybe your dehydrated. I haven't had surgery yet but when start to get dehydrated I get muscle pains.

Did they give you anumber to call if youhave any problems? I would call them or call the nurses line at your local hospital and see if you should go to the ER.

Hope you feel better soon!

You are probably dehydrated and when you sit up it will cause nausea and cold. I litterly was shaking when I got dehydrated. Two IV bags later and I was good as new...:)

Do you have a fever? Have you been eating at all?

Flu?

Whatever it is - drinking Water won't do it any harm and will likely do you good. Sounds like dehydration to me too. The first couple of months post op... the mantra needs to be sip sip sip but don't be afraid of asking for an IV of Fluid either.

It gets easier though so hang in there!

I hope you are feelng better very soon.

I went to the er last night... Two iv bags and I'm much better... Getting more fluids in, I'm praying that never happens again.

So glad you are feeling better!

So happy you went and are feeling better. Keep your drink with you and just sip as much as possible. All this constant sipping will end eventually but during this period it is very importante!

:)
