bronchotis

went to the er friday night/sat morning 2am I was having problems breathing it just hurt so bad to breath. so after a dozen or so test I was told I have bronchitis nothing new have had it a dozen or so times. so they give me my meds and tell me nothing bu****er,gatorade or fruit juice for next 72 hours. i told them i am not even 3 weeks out of surgery yet and have a certain guideline i have to follow so they tell me to call my surgeon next day. well my surgeon says no fruit juice or gatorade ( he doesnt allow and starches or fruit juices) so jus****er for 72 hrs he said if my blood sugar gets real low i can have a spoon full of peanut butter on a saltine. today I tried to start my protein back. its not working. all my protein shakes are making me nauseaus. so i went to my pcp and he says its probably the antibioticsand milk proteins having a reaction and to finish out the 10 day antibiotic then try again. i left a message for my surg nurse but havent heard back today. so if i am getting my fluids in how long before im in trouble with the lack of protein. everything taste bad and makes me want to gag except beans. i can handle beans ok and protein waters so i am getting about 25-30g protein is that ok for the next 6 days? the surg did tell on sat that in another week i can start to add eggs and canned chicken/ tuna and meats so by the time i finish the antibiotic I will be ready for those which will add more protein. on a positive note i have lost 42 pounds now so I am really happy with tha. 5 more pounds and I have hit my first goal.

Sorry to hear that you have been sick. Just hang in there. You are doing so good.I was worried because you did not answer my email. I have lost your phone number. Hope you feel like coming to the support meeting on Monday. Deborah
