I was diagnosed with strep throat one week and a day after my gallbladder surgery and found that my immun system is really bad due to having two major surgeries in the course of 14 weeks. So i have been feeling preety crappy and not much like talking.
Today i am reaching out becuase I"m having a hard time eating. does anyone else find this normal when and after they have been ill? I"m day four out on antibiotics and still the only things that doesn't make me hurl or want to is broth and that tastes nasty. I"m tired from not being able to get my protiens in. I'm starting to have hair loss as well. I have tried different things and find that not much is helping.
Sorry i jsut need to ask and vent. I'm so tired right now its not funny. I could fall alseep at my desk.

Since chicken broth is going in, have you tried the Unjury chicken soup flavor?  It would be protein at least. 

Sorry to hear you are going through so much!  If things don't start turning around for you, I'd call the doc's office and see what they recommend.

I sure hope you start feeling better soon!!!!!

Hi Sarah,
I have two packets of unjury chicken soup.  I could drop them off at your work if you want them.  Not sure if you are working but is sound like it.  Is there anyone who could take your kiddos for a few days so you could rest?    I know you are probably out of sick time or you would be in bed right now.  BUT...You really need to take some time off work and have the kids go to child care so you can rest or you are going to get very sick.

Let me know if you want the soup.  The protein mwy help.  Also call the nutritionist she may be able to help.  B12 may help also.   Tracy

I wouldn't mind trying the Unjury. the broth that i am trying now has no taste and i gag to get it down. I'm having a hard time taking my vits right now due to swelling. I have been at work since tues. I have been going to bed at about 9 due to that antibiotics. I have to take them evey 6 hours. I'm just tired from lack of nutrition at this point. I did try cup o soup last night. BAD IDEA i was up at about 11 with dumping syndrom. ew.

Why wait until Monday? I'm worried about you - you certainly have been through the mill. It is possible that the antibiotics can be contributing to your difficulties keeping things down.
