It looks like the worst is behind me! On Monday I felt so so so hungry and ate too many ice chips, which made me throw up. That was pretty unpleasant because I hadn't even eaten anything for three days. The nurses gave me heavy-duty anti-nausea medication that made me sleep for 15 hours. Yesterday I didn't feel much better - I still had severe pain spasms in between the nausea - but today I just feel better somehow. Although it is a good thing that I am supposed to start drinking clear liquids like tea and juice, I am pretty nervous and my fingers are crossed for how my troublesome tummy handles it.

I found this interview on CNN with my GI at Georgetown. This explains why it's so hard to get an appointment with her.
