Setback
I had my surgery on 3-20 and everything was ok for the first 6 weeks I did get yeast (thrush), Wasn't getting in my protein and vitamins everyday but trying. I went to my last Dr. appt and explained the diarreha I was still having. They sent me for a test and I have C.Diff infection. So I am taking medicine for the yeast, and the C. Diff and am getting sicker. I ended up last week having the foamies everytime I take a pill of any kind. Back to the Dr and EGD and I have an ulcer. So new medicine for that. Needless to say I got dehydrated and yesterday got some fluid at the ER and now I have a UTI. Another new pill. I am not able to eat much, living on broth, water and crackers. The foamies started again after I got home from ER. I have something for naseau but doesn't seem to help much. I don't know how I am going to make it through all this. I am getting very depressed and just need some prayers that it will get better.
Many prayers, and lots of good wishes!
Yeah, you've caught some rough outcomes here, but hang on, and things WILL improve once the infections are gone. At this point, keeping hydrated is probably your most important goal, so the broth and water is your best bet.
I came down with a series of intestinal infections (not surgery related, just bacteria) about 4 weeks out, and found that either unflavored protein in my chicken broth or unjury's chicken broth protein really gave me the opportunity to have my protein while staying hydrated since I couldn't get/keep much else down.
Best wishes - things WILL improve.
