Weird dreams?
haven't had surgery yet but am on day 6 of opti and spent last night (from what I remember) dreaming of food. Not things like desserts and baked goods but I dreamt of chicken, steak, veggies..... very weird!
I wasn't eating any of the food however. You must be so relieved when you wake up

lol, yes SO relieved when I wake up! They feel so real while I'm dreaming, I can actually taste what I'm eating! The food dreams started on Opti for me too, although I was the same - dreaming of normal foods a lot. I had a lot of dreams about rotisserie chickens for some reason, lol ;) Must have been craving the protein. Good luck in the rest of your Opti phase!!
Are you still taking pain meds? My mom had a bad work accident awhile back, she kept having horrible nightmares. It turned out to be the pain meds she was taking (Percocet I think).
