I can't swallow~too tight

Tried drinking chicken broth last night, wouldn't go down and I ended up hacking up the broth. Finally fell asleep only to be woke up by choking. yeah, fun...fun!

I have tried drinking water a couple times this morning, it's going down, but I can only take a small swallow at a time.

Yeah, I think I'll go back in on Monday and have Shellie take some out.

For now, I'm gonna try and drink some Boost!

enjoy the day!

WHAT? Good grief...your body needs to have nutrients, slow is good sister, don't rush things. I can't tell you how many people I've talked to who end up in physical bad shape due to lack of nutrients. Too much fill it sounds like....just love you!

OhMiGoodness! You've just described my worst fear with this. I'm burpy to begin with so it's hard for me to use that as a guide. But I do go in for my 3rd fill this week.

Please let me know how you're doing! How is Julie doing too?

HI, I am much better, I updated my blog. I'm so glad it's over. Remember Wendy I was at 7cc's and went in for another that put me to 8cc's. Now i'm back to 7cc's. Don't be afraid to go in! If you are, only get 1/2 cc. I will NEVER get a full cc from this poing forward! The burping is so aweful. It was such an aweful experience, it still brings tears to my eyes thinking of the pain and discomfort I was in. And the worst thing is that there IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO. Nothing can ease the pain, I just had to wait it out. Sure, I could have gone in for an IV yesterday, but they couldn't pull any fill out. I was struggling more with the pain in my throat!

Julie is doing ok, she got a fill Friday too and was really struggling. I told her to have some taken out! Geez, don't even hesitate with it. She wasn't as bad as I was....

thanks for checkin in sister Kathi and Wendy!

i'm tired and need to sleep!

hugs,
Kerri
