I had six nerve blocks in my neck at once and it did not work. I hope you have good results. We did not cut my nerves because the may grow in clusters on my head.

I've had the nerves burned before, but they grow back I guess. I just want an end to this back pain. With losing weight, id like to be going for walks, or doing anything active for that matter. I can't even walk around the block. So you have back problems too?? I have had so many epidurals, and they don't even work anymore. He was gonna do an implant, but says it doesn't pay because with the condition of my back, ill need surgery soon.

Just heading to get a referral to a doctor for scope. Stomach is not emptying fast enough. On fluids again.

Gl hopwfully theu figure it out

I am having a tough time counting how much water I'm drinking. Or protein I'm taking in. Shakes are the worst for me. Haven't found anything other than the whey protein drink from Walmart I started mixing it with water and sf Hawaiian punch to be able to get it down. Idk I hope I'm doing this right. My doc says I'm fine.

I use the MyFitnessPro app and it calcs all of my protein every day. I don't have to enter anything, there is a scanner on it and I just click and it uploads all the nutritional info automatically. It is awesome! It even shows how much exercise you do and the water you take in. Pretty cool!!

First bout of vomiting today. I ate a morningstar veggie burger, about half, and it came up 10 minutes later . I also had diarrhea earlier today, so maybe it is a stomach bug. Got no food in today, and vomitted water as well. Not gonna hit protein or water! ;(

Well im back to work today I feel like crap I ask to leave early its 101 degrees outside and the nursing home dont have ac feel dizzy

The HydraCoach Intelligent Water Bottle is amazing. You program it and as you drink it counts your ounces and you set it to whatever ounce intake you need for the day. It's a bit pricey but I think it's well worth it!

That does sound like a bug! Get better soon and try to stay hydrated. Hopefully tomorrow will be better for you.

Hi Paul....how did you know if your stomach is not emptying fast enough? What symptoms are you having?
