RE: "Good Morning" - Shayna - 11-06-2015
Hi all,
Yesterday I hibernated, called in sick from work and slept most of the day and early evening. My gastroparesis is acting up again.
For those of you not schooled in GP (short for gastroparesis), it's like having the stomach flu but it doesn't end. I manage my symptoms with medications, including Phenergan for nausea (I am allergic to Zofran, the cadillac of anti nausea meds, sigh.)
I am working today, from home, like I usually do on Fridays. I am still not feeling well, sticking mostly to liquids and popsicles. My GP symptoms are better, but my IBS-D is raging.

RE: "Good Morning" - Shayna - 11-06-2015
Sorry I was so negative earlier. I just get down when I have flare ups in my gut.
I am feeling a bit better. I had been wanting to go to the warehouse club for weeks, and we can only go on off times because I need to use a mobility cart, and those are in short supply during busy times. We went and there was a cart, yay!!
I got to taste a bunch of things, which was fun, and got some great items. Unfortunately, my husband tasted something that immediately disagreed with his gut. I wanted to go, but he insisted on staying because "this was YOUR outing". I know better than many how miserable it is to be around food, food, food when you have tummy troubles. But he insisted on finishing the shopping trip, and then we came home. He sipped a Coke in the car, and he said that helped a lot.
Hopefully, he will settle down, both physically and emotionally, and we can have a good weekend together.

Shayna, I am glad you are feeling better and like others have mentioned here before like Fire for one…..do not feel bad for saying how you feel .
It is okay. I actually did not think you were being negative but just saying like it was with you…and I was sorry to read it.
It is a normal part of being human I guess peaks and valleys. We can't always be upbeat and shouldn't always be down and out or negative and you are ay more positive than negative.
So it just shows that you are normal, I guess. Â I am glad to read that you are doing better, & DH was nice to you wanting to help you out of the bad feelings , how thoughtful he was towards you..Â
Friends are friends in the good times and the bad, right so don't apologize .Â
RE: "Good Morning" - Shayna - 11-07-2015
Thanks Linville and Fireplaces. I am back on track with meds, and today I was actually hungry and ate solid foods!!
Sometimes I just get down, and it's especially hard to stay chipper when my husband is battling depression and anxiety and pain. He stays in the negative nearly always these days. I try to be positive and cheerful, but sometimes he just keeps snapping and being snarky and mean, and I know it's his pain talking.
It's just, I don't do that when I am in pain, and his pain causes me pain, if that makes sense. I short myself on my pills so he can have some, since his drs won't treat his pain. Then, he resists taking them, saying they are mine and he doesn't deserve any pain relief, per his drs, etc. etc. It's a maddening cycle that often just wears me down.
Tonight has been a rough night, even though my gut is doing better. But tomorrow is another day, and another chance to begin anew. Despite that, I keep telling him that his mean words are like hammering nails into a wooden fence. Even if I forgive and pull out the nails, it still leaves jagged holes in my soul. And there have been a lot of holes hammered lately....
