Heading back to ER again, prayers please

[savedbysleeve 11]

I was told not to drink Gatorade. It is on the No list.

[nprcowboy 533]

Funny, that what they keep telling me to drink and the full sugar one to help with hydration and calories as I can't tolerate the Protein Shakes anymore

[ccausley 14]

Al, I have not been able to hold down Protein Shakes since my surgery on Dec 29th,

I drink mostly Power-aide it has B-3 B-6 & B12. I also drink an occasional Propel or if I drink Water it has to have flavoring also, regular water just doesn't go down well. My Dr & Nut said it was more important that I stay hydrated than anything...You are still in my prayers.

yeah they told me yesterday hydration over Protein. It's been almost 3.5 months since surgery, I just want this fixed and be able to eat. I can't live on liquids my whole life nor do I want to. I'm sorry you are having a rough go too

Are the liquids staying down?

[Chelenka 827]

Thinking of you and keeping you in prayer that you can progress through this time and everything stays down, no more nausea.

[nprcowboy 533]

Nausea has been bad. Taking my compazine. I did OK yesterday. Last time took about a week before started to get sick once tube removed. I'm doing liquids and soft foods so will see how it goes

[nprcowboy 533]

I switched to Powerade instead of gatorade as someone mentioned it had more Vitamins and such

[nprcowboy 533]

Powerade zero
