Taking a Health and Rest Break

Hi everyone,

In my last post I gave you all a health update.  I am feeling very weak, tired and nauseous, which may be attributed to the antibiotics I am taking.

I am trying to eat very small quantities of good food to keep my strength up, but it is not easy.  I have lost my appetite for food, and I know it is easy for others to say that I need to eat, and I am aware that I need to eat, but when you are feeling nauseous, just the thought of food isn't tempting at all.

Thank you all so much for your prayers and thoughts, and for your support.

I have no energy right now and just trying to eat is taking up any little energy I have.

Much love and hugs to you all.

  10. We'll I'm certainly glad it is something treatable, but I'm sorry you are feeling so ill. I get the exact same reaction from antibiotics. Ugh, I feel so crummy on them! I know exactly how you feel. Will be praying for you. Perhaps you can give your doctor a call to see if there is something that can help with the nausea? Hugs.

  15. I was having problems after the stomach flu. My bff suggested probiotics. I went to pharmacy to get them and seems to be helping. I normalizes your gut. I also eat "Gin Gin" candy when I am feeling nauseas. Get that at a health food store. Ginger helps so, I was mainly living on Ginger Ale and soda crackers. I hope you feel better soon!

    All my sympathy. My husband suffered post chemo nausea and found it almost impossible to eat...but did manage small amounts of home made vegetable soups with plain bread. There are some good commercially made soups about if you don't feel like cooking - which I bet you don't.
    Thinking of you.

  29. Oh ma belle Linda, en effet la médication met tout notre système à l'envers, est-ce que tu peux prendre du pédialyte, peut-être que cela t'aiderais un peu... Je suis avec toi de tout coeur, j'espère que tu vas guérir vite vite vite, soignes-toi bien!

  30. Get well soon Linda. I can report that I'm over my viral infection. Seems it was related to the Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) usually associated with teenagers.
