What Are You Eating/Doing Today?!? (Wednesday!)

Good Morning Right back at cha! ;

Morning all :)

Karla, so glad to hear that you're feeling better and it's great to see you back :)
Judy, I can so relate to your sleeping issues as I dealt with it for about 2 years. Hopefully they'll be able to switch meds or at least give you something to help you sleep through.

We ended up going out spur of the moment last night for dinner with friends and had SO MUCH fun - live band, outside on the patio, pure bliss.  The food was only so-so.  No leftovers.  AND I forgot my freakin' lunch and snacks on the counter this morning - arrrgghh!

B - coffee with milk x 2
S - I'll buy an apple and a little pack of cheddar from the shop downstairs
L - I guess I'll see what soup they have or I'll have my regular "tuna sandwich with all the veggies, hold the bread"
S - coffee or tea late afternoon
D - BBQ pork loin chop, cob of corn, spinach salad

Have a good one - gonna be a scorcher from the looks of it.

Hi Karen!

Good morning everyone,

Nice to see you back posting Karla but happier to see you are feeling better.  My bladder/kidney issues are back again too.  Passed a kidney stone a few weeks ago and bladder is still not behaving.  Will get a referral to the urologist and will most likely end up with a bladder suspension like Judy had.  

Judy I won't run myself ragged just really close okay?  LOL  Leaving for Toronto this afternoon so will mostly be snacking along the way.  We won't get in til after 7 and tonight we are staying in Chinatown so think I'll stick to cup of soup at the hotel since I'm too afraid of eating there due to my food allergies.   Love Chinatown but too afraid to eat there.

B - cereal with frozen fruit on top, splash of milk

L - pot roast, I put it in son's crockpot last night so will have a bite before we board the train

S - brought hummus and flatbread, protein cookies, cheese and crackers, old cheddar...have a bit along the way

D - most likely a cup of soup or may run to Mc****s which is a block away and order a salad if really hungry

Hey Trace!

I am sooooo glad to be back too!  i am so sorry to hear that your issues are back again.  Miserable things they are.  In the past two weeks I have passed three stones which lead to the hospital visits and ultrasounds and IV's and more drugs, and of course the miserable pain, the bladder/kidney infections.....all on top of an appendix issue that came out of nowhere!  Phew!  Everything has passed now but now my body is just trying to recover from the whole ordeal.  I hope you get feeling better really soon Trace...I know how miserable those issues can be. :(

Take care of yourelf my friend!!!!

It's funny you mention appendix.  I've been having a lot of weird pain in the lower right side and the doctor mentioned it could possibly be inflamed appendix.  I sure hope it doesn't need to come out as I just don't have time for that right now.

Do they have any idea what is causing your stones?  They didn't capture mine so they can't say for sure.  If I get that flank pain again I will make a point of straining my urine in case it's another so they can at least send it away to see what type it is so I can make changes if possible.

You are too funny my friend.....LMAO!! "I just don't have time for that right now!" Only you!  :)  Sorry darlin but if it decides it's comin out...it's coming out!  I hope for your sake that though that it is just a little inflammation and that it will resolve itself!  Wouldn't that just be perfect?!?!? :)

I think it is definitely a good idea to strain so they can figure out what kind they are...sometimes it's as easy as a change in diet/food choices that can help them to stop producing.  i have had them since I was 15 and have lost track of how many I have passed. I have 2 different kinds of stones and apparently (according to my ultrasound) right now i have 6 in my left and 1 in my right.  Nothing is moving right now so that is a good thing.  They can just stay put and that will keep me perfectly happy!

Well I just hope if it is appendix it can hold off til Saturday afternoon.  I am escorting my mom to Toronto for chemo and wouldn't that just be a ***** if I ended up in emerg needing surgery.  After Satuday let the ****** explode and yank it out.  LOL
