Magnesium Citrate Blues

Okay, I am NOT meaning to be gross here, but, is there such a thing as too much ?????? I chugged my stuff, following the old Army adage of that which is done quickly is done quickly lol, and I swear I haven't been able to go more then 3 steps from my toilet all morning!!! To add insult to injury, every time I take a nice healthy drink of water, I making a run for it 3 minutes later. I understand this is neccessary but MAN!!! I haven't had THIS much "fun" since the night I ate a habenero laced burrito!!!

You know, last week when it was my turn for the fun stuff, I was afraid it didn't work! I only went a couple of times and it wasn't much and none of the expected cramping. I ate all day on sat, sunday I was clear liquids, and at 2:00 pm , I drank the dreaded stuff. Maybe the food the day before helped, I don't know. But if you keep running to the bathroom , make sure your drinking enough water, you don't want to be dehydrated when they have to start your iv. and remember, when your in your room with they pain pump that you control, you can pu**** every 10 min. don't be an idiot like me and think it's every 2 HOURS! LOL Good luck tommorow, the aids and nurses at bothwell are wonderful, friendly people, your almost there!!

LOL, thanks for the support. Yeah, I was naughty yesterday, we went to Ryans and even though I was "good" by comparison to my "before" life ( I ate ONLY protein steak and ham, no carbs), I still was naughty. I starved myself all day though for that treat and I on't feel the least bit of guilt. It may be the last time I get to have steak. I still kept myself under 1200 cals tho. Anyways, I am having NO problem going. No cramping, but, I was sposed to go run sme errands today nd I don't think that's gonna happen lol. Not unless I have  colostomy bag.... TRUST me, I will be keeping on close and personl terms with my morphine pump. I'm no pain pansy, but, neither am I a masochist. I'll save my masochism for when I get home and try to handle the terrordactyls (my boys ages 2 and 4) for a day before the weekend brings hubby relief. SLIDE OVER FOLKS!!! Here comes another rear end for the loser's bench!!!!

dont mean to laugh but remember that day all too well. you will be fine just keep sipping water off and on and know that tomorrow this will all be a memory , not a happy one but one that will remain with you. Your time is almost here and know that we all will be praying for you. ...

You go girl...lol  you will be fine tomorrow, just hang in there it gets better....lol....vesta

LOL....I'm sorry....truly not laughing at you...but with you.  I'm sure you're not burning like you were with the habenero laced burrito...you can be thankful for at least that  .  You took your stuff really early....hopefully you will benefit from a good night's sleep.  I remember that mag day really well...as will you...man I am jealous of all you who "cheated" one last time and had good stuff.  All I had was a lousy fish sandwich from mcds...i should have gone for the gusto....oh well....hey good luck tomorrow.....will be thinking of you.....
