Constant Nausea

Apr 14, 2010

 The nausea that started yesterday is continuing.  I did go to the gym this morning, and walked on the treadmill for 37 minutes.  And then I went and attended my first support group meeting at OHSU.  It was interesting.  The topic was cravings, and I met some people that were a year or more post op.  They were doing great.  I got maybe 15-20 grams of protein this morning in my Isopure drink, before I didn't think I could drink anymore.  I know I need to be getting my protein in, though.  I thought I would try another of the Chike samples I got.  I tried the banana the other day and actually liked it, although still too sweet for my tastes.  Well, I blended up the strawberry.  Took one sip and knew that if I tried to continue I was gonna hurl.  So I threw that out.  A few days ago I made a chai protein blend that Pam T. wrote about, so I thought I would try that instead.  I drank maybe a quarter of it before feeling sick.  So I tried Muscle Milk Lite.  I had one the other day and thought it was okay; today, not so much.  Ugh.  I'm going to concentrate on water for the rest of the day, I think.  Hopefully this nausea will pass.  I can't help but wonder if it's related to the headache, which showed up the morning after I started taking my birth control pill again.  I don't know.  I need to make an appointment with my regular doc to get some blood drawn, and I'm going to talk to her about getting an IUD put in.  Maybe that will help.
