I think this is because of my ulcers but the past few days i've had crazy nausea. It comes in waves and lasts for hours. It's really bad and it's making it hard to take medicine, eat, and sleep. At the hospital the nurse suggested gravol or ginger grav

Now that surgery is 3 days away I thought it would be good to get suggestions on what to take to the hospital with me. I know we're told not to over pack but I'm on of those people that would rather have something and not use it then need it and not ha

Hi everyone, you probably remember me from my other post a few days ago. I was really struggling the first couple of days of optifast. Just like you all told me it definitely got a lot better. Weird enough at first I hated the chocolate and preferred t

This is just some suggestion for everyone to help you save some money. So I don't know about everyone but for me I was told to take 2 irons (I'm anemic so double the dose), 1 vitamin c (to help with the anemia), and 1 prenatal. 2 hours later I take 2 3
