Slightly better on the pain scale today. I only took my pain medication once when I needed to sleep. I plan on seeing if I can go completely without from now on. I have the most pain when I have to burp, right in the V of my chest. The rest has toned down quite a bit.
Hooray for making it through without any nausea meds. I had a terrible reaction to the Phenergan they gave me through my IV pre-procedure and definitely won’t ever use that medication again. It caused some weird muscle sensations that were really uncomfortable.
Diet moved to “full liquids” today. My meals consisted of tomato soup, red lentil soup, and a protein shake. I got in about 350 calories. I’m taking things extremely slow when it comes to drinking/eating. Its a difficult balance to stay hydrated without ever gulping or taking in more than 8oz in an hour. I basically just make sure I’m slowly sipping something all day.
