Mind letting me vent?

Ok... I probably sound like a broken record but I am just so f'ing miserable. Last night I had reflux so bad that I was up until 4:30am, bringing up fluids. They would just creep up and up and when it would reach my thyroid area, I would let it come back up at the kitchen sink. That went on until 4:30am. I didn't have anything particularily solid. It was fluid that couldn't stay down. This royally sucks. I tried to sleep but the reflux sensation would wake me up. I cannot wait until I get my repair date. I can't even imagine what life would be like without this reflux. It has been over a year and is just getting worse. Thanks for letting me vent. I am just so exhausted.

I wish venting would make it better......I feel very bad for you. If I get stuck for more than 5 minutes I'm in a really bad mood.....I can't even imagine what you're going through. But....there is a light at the end of the tunnel - hopefully soon!!! You're strong.....and you'll get through this, and be all that much happier when it's behind you. Come here and vent anytime......and try to get a little rest. Being tired on Sunday bites.... it makes the whole week tough!

Thanks for letting me vent. It is so frustrating! I have had a really bad weekend. I got no studying done. I have to catch up with class work and I will try my best to study, but I am so tired I just can't think straight tonight. I wish I could get the repair done tomorrow.

I'm so sorry you are having such a hard time, Alyssa. You must be so frustrated, not to mention tired! I can't remember, when is your repair date? I hope it is soon so you can get back to a better quality life. I'll keep you in my thoughts.

I don't have my repair date yet. I should know soon, hopefully. I think my pre-op appointment is on Tuesday, so I hope that my surgeon will tell me what day we can do this. I'm trying to up my protein in the meantime.

I hope your repair date is soon! That does suck. Can you get bread or crackers down? Sometimes the reflux improves if you have something spongelike for it to feed on.

Haha... you are reading my mind! I just had some whole wheat crackers to try and see if it helps.

Hang in there, hon! It CAN'T be mush longer! Hope tonight, is much better! Sure hope that date, is soon! LY!

Alyssa - I am so sorry that you are still having problems with reflux. I know that it is awful. I can't even imagine how tired you are. I will be happy when you get your date but probably not as happy as you. Keep your chin up sweetie!!

Sorry that you are not doing well. I know that I had a couple of nights of reflux a long time ago and I still remember how horrible it was. Hope you get things straightened out soon!!!
