Not feeling so hot today
Hey guys. I came home yesterday and was feeling pretty good-no problems at all other than "normal" post-op pain, etc. Well, I woke up this morning with a headache. I reached over to take a drink and wasn't sitting up all the way-not sure if I got too much air in my pouch or what but I've felt yucky since. I've had a bit of nausea, but haven't gotten sick. Took some more pain med and got some more sleep but still just don't feel good. Nausea seems better but is still there a little. I'm sipping on my water but trying to be oh-so-careful b/c I'm terrified of throwing up. I don't think I'm dehydrated-I drank plenty yesterday and I'm still peeing fine, etc-though I know it's possible. Any other tips to get rid of this nausea or any ideas why I'm having it. It's a lot more bearable now than it was before. Bad part is my headache feels migraine-ish, so this would be completely normal for me, but I can't take what I normally would for a migraine. Any thoughts and suggestions you guys have would be great. :)

Ok-after dry heaving and then calling the doc-he thinks it was from taking pain medicine on an empty stomach. I feel much better now. I got down some vegetable broth and feel pretty good now. Still a little linger of nausea, but nothing compared to before. Guess I learned my lesson :).

Thanks Stacy :). I feel 100 times better now than I did earlier-that was scary b/c I was so afraid of getting sick. I've been able to get more fluids in and I held off on pain meds until just a while ago. I've noticed that getting my fluids in is going to be tricky-they weren't kidding when they said that. I also keep getting the hiccups which does not feel too good. It sounds like I'm complaining a lot but I really do feel pretty good...I promise lol.
