just need to vent a bit :(

**Sorry this is a long one, and kind of TMI***

The past few days have been really rough food wise. I've been not feeling great, and I've been super nauseous ... so I really havent been eating. Today I had a SUPER early appointment with my ob/gyn to get my iud adjusted because it wasn't in the right spot (because my uterus is stupid and hates me) ... and it was really rough. It was actually super painful and I don't want to get in to details because that would SERIOUSLY be too much information.... so I'll just leave it at painful (which is why I got the IUD though, because like I told my dr... the 24hrs of pain today.... outweighs the pain of pregnancy and childbirth and then raising a child... pregnancy legit scares me) anyway... like i was saying.. My appointment was SUPER early... I had to be there at 745 for an 8am appt. I can't eat that early. Thats like.. way to early for me to eat. I need at least an hour of functioning awake time before I can eat food, so I usually eat around 930.

So I went on an empty stomach. And Like ... super empty because I really didn't eat much the past two days. I felt dizzy during the procedure but he said that was normal because of the shock of the pain... and after I felt okay. They had me lay down for a while and when I got up I felt fine. Then when I was standing to make my follow up appointment I got super dizzy and light headed and according to the receptionist I turned a lovely shade of snow white. I recognized this feeling and I knew I was close to passing out. They had me sit down and gave me juice. They had done a finger ***** to check my glucose and it was at 48. A normal reading for fasting glucose should be above 60. So then my dr gave me his fruit cup and had me lay down in one of the rooms for like an hour and a half. I feel much better in the terms not wanting to pass out ... but I'm still in a lot of pain. And I'm super nauseous. But I HAVE to eat ... but since I'm nauseous I dont want to eat... but I force myself to get SOMETHING down... and then I get even more nauseous.

Sorry. I'm just whiney and complainey today. Its grey and cloudy and wet here and I've been crying on my couch since I got home. Just needed to vent

Awwww I really feel for you.  I have a Marina IUD and it was really painful when the Dr put it in place.  Take it easy for a few days and maybe eat dry biscuits and ginger beer.  Supposed to be good for nausea.  See if you can get a shake down or maybe some soup.  Hope you feel loads better soon lovely.

Awwwww, Katie!!!  I had a Paraguard IUD put in (super painful) and then removed because it was shifting and no longer in the right place.  The removal was even worse than putting it in for me.  And like you I cried and cried and didn't even know why i was crying.  My ob had me stay lying down for awhile too.

As far as eating something, why don't you try slider foods.  Like some greek yogurt or SF pudding, or soup or something easy to go down like that.  Or you could always try a protein shake?

Hope you start to get feeling happier soon

Sorry to hear you're having a rough time....((((HUGS))))).  Have you tried taking anything for the nausea? 

Sending you a warm hug.  Hope tomorrow is brighter for you...

I'm so sorry. Sounds like you did not have a fun day. I'm sending you support, understanding (I,too, had a very painful IUD experience), and cyber hugs.     I hope your tomorrow is much better!!!   -Julie
