My f'ing day, yesterday

:sigh:

So yesterday I spent the entire day at Kaiser hooked up to an IV to get fluids. I was having a marathon throwing up session and went to Kaiser to see if I could get some relief. After a urine sample they said I was spilling ketones in my urine (meaning I was dehydrated and unable to retain nutrients because of my MS and my body had starting feeding off my fat stores instead of carb stores). After a day of fluids my urine looked good again. I'm so insanely exhausted and while I'm still nauseous I'm not nearly as bad as yesterday so I'm just hoping that lasts as long as possible.


I'm 8w6d and am so scared I'll have to have another day like yesterday before this trimester is up. I'm supposed to have my first u/s tomorrow and just hoping I can see/hear this little one that's causing so much trouble.... will help me remember why this is all worth it. :)

  • Just had my u/s yesterday, and it definitely changes things. Hopefully it'll be just the boost you need. I hope you feel better soon.

  • Oh wow. That sounds terrible! Good luck!!!
  • I feel your pain! I was at the hospital sun doing the exact same thing. It's brutal. Hopefully you're feeling better soon and don't have a repeat episode!
  • Oh wow, how awful. Fingers crossed you feel 100x better soon!

    Me too... for you! I hope you are feeling better!


    And thanks everyone else for your sympathies. I'm about to head home for my lunch break and take a much needed nap.

  • Enjoy the nap!!  Hopefully you are feeling better soon!

  • Wasn't able to fall asleep for some inexplicable reason but just laying down for 40 minutes was nice.


    It's like that point during your cold where you can't remember what it's like to breath out of your nose anymore... I can't remember the last time I wasn't nauseous for more than a few minutes. 

  • I had a day yesterday too, mine was more humiliating that dangerous. I still haven't told people I work with so I try not to make my bathroom trips that obvious and hold it for as long as I can. Well I may have waited a bit too long and really had to go, but at that same time, a wave of nausea came over me too, I had to choose which was the greater need, peeing or vomiting, I chose peeing, thinking I could hold the other for a moment longer. Wrong choice, as I went to sit on the toilet, I puked down the leg of my pants! Everyone at work knows now!

    Oh I'm so sorry! That sucks. Completely and total sympathy from me!


    Hope you're feeling better today.

  • Ah! Sorry this happened! Hope you start feeling better soon.
