 i am so so so tired of feeling crappy.  tomorrow will be 4 weeks out from surgery and this past week i have been doing pretty well, however went back to work this week (only 4 hour days, not too bad) and today woke up feeling absolutely horrible.  started getting muscle aches in my calves like i did 2 weeks ago before going to hospital for dehydration... was worried dehydration was starting again so i called my surgeons office.  he is out of town so the receptionist told me to go to ER and follow up with surgeon on friday when he got back.  i knew i wasn't THAT sick to go to ER, just felt "not right".  ended up going to my primary doctor and she said my bloodwork from monday jsut got back and my thyroid is out of whack (i'm on thyroid medicine for hypothyroid).  which could be a reason i'm feeling like i have been.  

so thankful to have an answer why i'm feeling like this, but i'm just ready to have energy, be happy, and feel normal again so i can get on with my new, healthy life.  

on a sleeve note, my purees are going well and will start veggies this weekend.  still struggling with liquids.  

just needed to vent a little.  thanks!

Sorry that you are having such a diffucult time. Good for you for checking in with your Dr. I hope they get your meds adjusted so you can start feeling better. Hydration is very important. Once you start with a little more food like veggies and purees your energy level will start to go up. Feel better soon.
