Good news and typical issue
Whoa, foamies. I stopped at the deli and got shaved roast beef. Ground beef was fine so I thought this would be fine, too. Nope. Got my first experience with foamies. I couldn't believe how foamy it was lol. I felt terrible. Wound up throwing up the roast beef, but it was soothing drinks for the rest of the night.
I had no trouble with shaved turkey. If you get it shaved, it's like it's half-chewed already. I have no problem with water. I have to drink at least 80 oz per day. I have 8 oz hot tea when I wake up, 16 oz water to take my morning pills, 8 oz protein drink. Then I drink at work. I have two 20 oz bottles and I drink two or three of those at work. I swear I'm in the restroom as much as I'm in my office. I drink 16-20 oz at the gym, then whatever I happen to drink at home. If I drink less, I get dizzy. Almost passed out one day after scooping the litter boxes. I rarely get pain from drinking anymore. I just got one pain right now from taking half of a potassium pill. Those don't like to go down for me.
I haven't had to crush anything. Prescription capsules I could swallow whole. Prescription tablets I broke in half. I had two weeks of liquid vitamins, now I'm on chewable vitamins until those are done with. I'm pretty sure I'm going to cut my regular multi into at least halves, maybe quarters. Not sure yet. I may be able to take my tablets whole right now, but I'm not sure and forgot to ask when I went to my follow up yesterday. I was taking my meds as soon as I passed the leak test in the hospital.
