They're having "food night" tonight at work. I ate a few crackers with cheese and pepperoni and some ham but no bread.

But there's a cake. And a giant chocolate chip cookie. And banana pudding. And they're making me sad.

This is the first time I've wanted to cheat. Ugh.

I am sitting in the worst chairs in the world inside an ER room with my 19 year old. He has been feeling bad all week. He works... No workED at a landscape company' date=' and has been outside in this extreme heat. I took him to urgent care on Tuesday. He was not dehydrated, but his sugar was at 49. After work yesterday, he basically collapsed in the bathroom. His sugar was 156, he had cramps, vomiting pretty much all day.

It looks like he is severely dehydrated. His kidneys were horrible when we got here and they have moved to bad at this point. Going in the right direction, but not great yet. They are not admitting him yet. So, we sit in this uncomfortable room and try to last through the night. Prayers appreciated![/quote']

Prayers for you and your son!

Hey girl! How is everything else going?? My doctor had me swallowing pills in the hospital. I swallow my Actigall and Prilosec.

[kdgaines 41]

These pills are HUGE. Terrify me.

The pill is huge but I swallow mine. And it's never gotten stuck. The worst part is I have to take with food but after that huge pill I can barely eat.

I've swallowed mine from the start, they don't bother me at a all, I don't even think they taste bad? Is that weird? Lol

Yes, I did. My doc changed them to tablet form and I split it into 4 pieces and swallow that. Is the name of yours something like ursidol? It comes in tablet form, as your doc!

Thanks everyone for the advice. My pill is urisodol so I will definitely ask my doctor about the tablet form. I have other meds that are tablets and they are much better!
