22nd Post - Back to solids

Jul 14, 2009

I forced my way into a doctor's appointment last Wednesday because no one ever followed up with me after the endoscopy, except for my calls to the nursing line, so I was just eating what I could keep down and felt like I was running in place. The doctor even said I looked tired and dehydrated. He game me a prescription for a nasal spray I take weekly for B12, so hopefully that will help with my energy levels, and he said to go back to solids.

To be honest, solids scare me. After all the problems I had before with throwing up almost every time I ate, you can't really blame me. But yesterday I ate 5 small shrimp over a few hours and with some mayo they went down okay and stayed there, so that is a good start. They were previously frozen and very limp so I'm sure that played a part. Fresh shrimp might have been more of an issue.
