I went and saw my regular doctor today for a med check. I have been having some problems with difficulty in taking my anti-depressants and was looking for some help. Fortunately, my current med is in liquid form and it's not a concentrate. The liquid one that I was just taking required being mixed with 4 oz of water + the 2 oz of medication. It was vile tasting and I can't chug down that much liquid! I was hoping for a patch, but the only kind offered is not the type that I need. Taking 2 tsp. and that's it will be a much better option! She also checked out the one incision that I had open up and it is healing well. So that is a relief!
Steve took me to my first post-op support group meeting tonight. It was really great talking over some of the things that I am dealing with that other have dealt with. It is a huge relief to know that with time, the things I am struggling with will get better! I connected with a couple of ladies who want to be facebook buddies so that is cool! It was good for Steve to see what is up so that he knows better how to be supportive of me.
The ride home, however, was awful. I got more and more nauseous. I finally got sick a little bit ago (intestinally) and it seems to be starting to ease up. I am lactose intolerant and the diet I am on right now is a bit difficult. Today I had yogurt and cottage cheese. I think that that combined with the car rides were tough on my system. After this week, I will be able to start eating proteins in its normal form and my diet will be a little easier to take. For now, I just have to figure out how to handle my diet without getting so sick.
