I haven't been this sick in years



Recommended Posts

Woke up yesterday with aches all over. Got the chills so bad that even after two hours I was still shaking. I had fleece sheets, a down blanket, a comforter, and three large fleece blankets on in addition to the t-shirt, extra warm socks and winter pj's. Took a four hour nap. Then last night the endless trips to the bathroom. No vomiting because I haven't been able to eat...use your imagination. I was up every two hours or so. The aches are mostly gone, I alternate between being too warm and now I'm cold. Nothing like the body spasms I was having yesterday though. Bathroom issues haven't resolved...I'm taking kaopectate. I hope this gets resolved soon. Pretty sure I have a strain of the stomach flu. ???? Wiping all surfaces with Lysol! I did finally eat something today because the one Protein Shake I had yesterday did not help my stomach issues. I've had a medium banana and two pieces of toast - not at the same time. Also a cup of tea and some Water. I can't remember the last time I was this sick. I hope I'm better tomorrow because I don't have a lot of vacation left and I'd really hate to use a day....but if I feel this lousy I will.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
