I received a phone call from EMMC. They wanted me to come early for rehydration. I voted and DS drove me to Bangor. Infusion started at 12:30 and ended at 4PM. Boy was I dehydrated!!! I pee'd 3 times while I was there, only pee'd once all day Monday. I had 2 bags of IV liquids some nausea meds and vitamins. Feeling much better. I was able to drink quite a bit compared with earlier. Still working on the eating.

DS drove home and dropped me off at the YWCA in Camden/Rockport. I met DH there and we had our orientation for their gym. We will now go and be able to use some of the machines!

The BEST news, besides feeling better----- I lost weight since yesterday. 3 pounds less  I thought for sure I'd gain with all that fluid! I guess my body was in starvation mode and not letting go.

Mom had some "sea bands", which I've borrowed and put on. Turns out I was getting car sick with the 1 hr drive to work- hmmm never had that before. This is an interesting journey.
