Too restricted right before my TOM.
Since my last fill I realized there were 1-3 days right before my period that I had LOTS of trouble eating. It took some time to figure out the pattern but I am pretty sure thats i****er retention right? Well it's real bad today. Worse than its ever been. Having trouble with liquids. Spoke to the Drs office and I am going in tomorrow morning. Any body have any home remedies to help out? Similiar situations? Advice?
I have nothing to do with it .. errr .. ohhhhhh .. T.O.M. - not Tom
Good Luck on your Journey !!

Hi there. I have the same problem. In fact I had an adjustment just a few weeks ago and followed almost immediately with my TOM and had a really hard time. I found a couple of things help.
1) morning times are worse for me generally but really bad during my TOM. I found drinking hot liquid (tea is what I drink) helps a lot to loosen things up just a bit so I can get food down.
2) During that week I try to revert back to more liquids and mushy foods in general almost as if I just had an adjustment or a couple of days after an adjustment.
3) Take even smaller bites than what you've learned recently to take and chew even longer.
I thought about going back to the surgeon but I'm finding that after my TOM I don't have near as much restriction in fact could probably use a bit more. I decided I would use that week each month to get back to the basics and hopefully lose a bit more weight than to have them unfill and me not have enough restriction the rest of the month.
Good Luck.
