I think I'm dying....Warning TMI

Warning...This is a TMI for all those weak stomachs out there...


I've been all stopped up for about 6 days...I've done Miralax, eating more protein, and adding more fiber to my diet...nothing has worked until today...and I thought I was going to die.

I've been gassy but nothing has been moving, then tonight, almost instantly, things started moving again. I got nauseous, shaky, and just in general not a happy camper. I was sweating like a pig, with a walmart sac in front of me because I didn't know if I could spin around fast enough if I did have to throw up...I was really thinking that I had gotten the stomach bug that has been going around all semester, so I took my temperature. I'm a normal 98.0 degrees, so I'm not sure what the nausea or sweating was from...


Anyone else every had these symptons?

Sounds like you have a dumping episode but I didn't think VSG people got  that so I dunno!

First of all.....ewww....  LMAO

Secondly...YES I have had those symptoms....I remember it like it was a really foggy memory....  I was in Northern Ireland and had drank more than my fill of "fun water" aka vodka at some "shin-dig" honoring some cartoon character.... maybe huckleberry hound...and BOOM...  I was the the exorcist throwing up green stuff everywhere...spinning...hot....feverish...yes normal temperature...


Can't say that I was "stopped up".... but the other symptoms YES....I had them....

All indicators tell me it was the "fire water".....  I'd stay away from that stuff if I were you.....oh crud, I almost forgot....it causes headaches too...for real and stuff....

Sorry you're feeling bad.....take some of that Milk of Magnesia stuff, and stay away from boys....I think they're carrying this desease called "cooties"...dunno what it is, but sounds serious...  Just the word "cooties" spooks me....

Seriously....sleep...study....do good on finals...(I think the stress of finals is why you're stopped up..) de-stress.... pray for relief that doesn't come in the middle of classtime....and umm...check bloodsugar if you're shaky...and stuff....

Thanks T. I think I finally figured out the cause of my vivid dreams too...Hypoglycemia while I'm asleep. The symptoms are nightmares/ vivid dreams, night sweats, and waking up confused or disoriented. So I had a protein shake last night and TADA!! No dreams last night.

I'll try my hardest to stay away from the fun water, but you know me, I'm a partier lol...jk

I hope the stopped up stuff has passed, Thank God I have a mom that's a nurse, she told me everything was going to be fine, then she laughed at me. Oh well.

I've never dumped before, but I thought that happened typically right after you ate rather than 6 days down the road...I could be wrong, and if that's what happened, I don't know what I could have ate that would have caused it...nothing but beef jerkey and fat free tuna salad for me these days. I don't have time to do anything else lol.

Remember my haunting words....  "beware the cooties"......


oh and ummm eat fiber and stuff....like FLAX-Z-SNAX.... FTW!  Plenty of fiber, low carb..tasty too...and just to let you know....it's "cootie-free"  that's right....it's amazingly "cootie" free...

add the fruit...the cream, the splenda...and thank me many times....

and just for the sake of it....the beef jerky can clog you up....unless you're drinking tons of water that it needs to reabsorb in your belly...

T.

I'm drinking around 100 oz a day, so I think that should be enough to get the jerky flowing. I'll try to stay away from cooties...they are never good for anyone anyways.

I bought some of that splenda with fiber in it, 1g per packet, and put four of them into my daily protein shake, along with my tea that I make too. So lots of fiber going down...


OOOO, and I weighed this morning, and I'm only 6 pounds away from losing 100!!! I'm super excited!

maybe it is your calcium..it tends to bind you up, are you using the citrate or regular...fantastic on your lose..thats great...

I have to constantly add fiber to my diet when it is very high protein, otherwise, I have to sail with the fleet, and that is worse than cooties.

We all had a stomach virus in my family and none of us had fever, just the ills of most stomach junk! Upper and lower cases! Lots of cramping too...It seems there is a lot of that going around now too....We had 4 families all with it at different times so........
