Julie

I was just thinking about you and wondering how you are doing.  Did those meds ever kick in?  Did you call the other dr yet?  Love you girl...

I cut out alot of meds.. pain meds,, naseau meds.. can cause the colon to slow. And I am going to see about having acupunture.
I have been having protein shakes everyday and today was better than yesterday.
I have been to the bathroom but it's slow and not goood.. I am hoping each day is better than the day before.
I am going to see another doctor but it will be in a few months.. It takes that long!! wow!

Thank you for your prayers!
I love you!
YOU are so special to me!!

I didn't think about all the meds...you're right that can slow you down too.  Especially nausea meds.  At least you're going SOME.  A little relief is better than no relief.  Can you add benefiber to your protein shakes?   I did that early out and it helped some.  The main thing that helped me become regular was drinking coffee.  I'm not sure if it's the warm liquid or the caffein.  I drink decaf most of the time but it does have a little caffein in it.  I have faith that each day will be better for you. 

Kim's doing great...she got out of the hospital yesterday.  She'll be on a liquid diet thru today and then she'll go into soft foods/thicker liquids.  Pretty much like a wls post op diet. 

Love ya lots...

I will have to try some benefiber...

I am so glad to hear Kim is doing well!!
I am praying for her!!

I wish you were coming Saturday but I certainly understand your other obligations.
I pray it won't be long and we will be together for a visit again!!
