Update from Nurse on Versed and Endoscopy

Cindy,

You know I'm praying for you.  If you are dehydrated like the nurse seems to think, then that could definitely be causing your headache.  I know that if I don't drink enough fluids during the day, I will definitely get a headache, and that's what I have been told is causing them, so I'm trying to increase my fluids too.  But, I know how much food trouble you've been having, so you know I will definitely keep you in my prayers for that too.  Just keep reminding yourself how great you are looking and how much better you are feeling (other than the food reactions, that is!), and maybe that will help get you through this better.  Hang in there!

Thanks Meredith, I'm still dealing with a headache but not feeling dizzy anymore so I'm wondering if I have a sinus infection and I've been trying to drink more fluids.

Cindy,

I had a sinus infection last week and it was miserable, so I can definitely sympathize!  Hang in there, and I'll be thinking about you as you start to introduce more solid foods.  Good Luck!

Did you take anything for your sinus infection? I talked to Helen and she never offered to get me anything called in.

Doc told me there was nothing really to take, as far as antibiotics.  I got some Mucinex D from the pharmacy, which helped dry out my sinuses a bit and relieved some of the pressure.  Maybe that would work for you?  Good luck!

I've taken that before and it didn't help me but maybe it will this time. If I don't start feeling better I'll give it a try. Thanks!
