As of today, I'm now back down to my lowest weight- something I haven't seen since December 06. Unfortunately it's not something I had a lot of control over. I've not been able to keep anything down since Tuesday. I'm taking phenergan around the clock, but it's not doing a whole lot of good.
At first, I thought it was the flu, but now I think it's something else because even though I've lost a truckload of weight- I look like I'm pregnant and my abdomen is very tender. Plus? I've been sleeping about 13-14 hours a day.
Anyone want to guess? Come on... we've seen this before....
I'm calling my gastro as soon as the office is open to see if I can get in.
It would be no surprise that my liver is acting up, since I'm on so many meds, and almost all of them have doubled since the second head injury. I've never looked to see if any of them affect the liver, because I assumed my doctor took that into consideration.
My bad.
Well, at least there's a plus side, eh? My pants are baggy again, in spite of the fact that two of those meds cause weight gain. And even better, I'm so darned happy that I have my brain back- that this little bit of yuck isn't getting me down like it would have before bonking my head. I've gained perspective.
The bad news is that once I get whatever this is 'fixed', I'll probably gain the weight again. Meh. I consider this a 'false' weight loss. It's not real.
