I totally know what you're feeling:(. I hope it gets better soon. It has improved for me the past couple of days and I hope it does the same for you:)

I am not working and would love to have a surgery buddy.

[missmegan 37]

Does anyone else wake up with headaches all the time? I have one pretty much every morning. Not big ones.....just annoying.

Sometimes I wonder if all of the chemicals in sugar free and fat free products, even maybe Protein supplements, can effect us like that

I am two weeks too. My doc moved me to soft foods a few days ago. How are you both doing food wise?

You are also welcome to text me.

I suck at food/fluids.

My pouch is picky and angry most of the time. It hates medications the worst.

How are you doing?

[Jodibee 17]

Back to work tomorrow. I've been doing well getting in Water, Protein, Vitamins etc. being at home because that has been my focus. A little worried,that I won't do as well with work added into the mix. How did you all make the transition back to the real world?

[anm1063 24]

I am 2 weeks as well! I am having most trouble with food in general! Not that I can't handle it but more that I am afraid of it. I eat once a day, at most. I have no problem with Vitamins and Water, but shakes make me gag, so they are out at the moment.

Thank you!!!!

I get a ton of water all day...but maybe I need more at night! Even though I end up having to get up in the middle and pee...sigh. But I'll give it a shot. Most days I hit at least 100 oZ thought.

[Jodibee 17]

100 oz is a lot I don't think the headaches are from dehydration. Maybe blood pressure, or maybe seasonal allergies or stress?

[Nel 189]

I'm going to go with seasonal allergies. Or that I don't drink at all at night. I don't know. I'll start drinking more. If not, I'll call the doc and see what I can take. My blood pressure is good. I've never had any issues there.
