Heebie Jeebies & Dry Heaves

Mar 15, 2014

Am I complaining? NO because I know that I'll eventually feel better; and that I will always be thankful for having had the sleeve surgery.  Day two after surgery; tried to take my thyroid, HBP, & acid reflux pills-all are small pills, drank two medicine size cups-o-water to get them down.  Less than 5mins. later blech-threw up a bunch of yellow stuff.  Last night after blogging I had dry heaves after taking the liquid pain medicine that my Doc gave me.

I have been in contact with my Doctor; he said don't try to take any of your medicine or vitamins today & every hour sip two medicine cup sized sips of water so I won't get dehydrated.  Fine by me because there isn't a food or drink in the world that I'm wanting right now anyway.  still have gas pains in my chest but I knew that would happen from other surgeries that I've had in my lifetime; when I take my dogs outside I've been walking up & down the sidewalk 2 to 4 times; it's a short distance but it does help.  Can't wait til I feel better and I know that I will.  Rome wasn't built in a day; & I didn't expect my body to be used to losing 70% of my stomach in just a few days either.
