Jumping the Gun
Okay... the whole "first taste of pain management" was simply a tease. I am struggling so badly with nausea and vomiting that I cannot keep any of this helpful medication down. It seems like am stuck on a pendulum -- one week up, one week down. At this point, I'd settle for being caught in the middle with no movement whatsoever.
I have tried to isolate the cause of this and cannot identify a culprit. All I know is that they need to make a Pedialyte for grownups that tastes like Diet Coke rather than a half cup of orange drink mixed with 5 cups of sugar.
Pray. Hard.

So sorry. =( Planning on coming tomorrow to rub your head if you're up to it and bring some sillyness and sunshine your way.
Love~

It is really difficult to know what to say. I feel so bad for you, and I want to kick some butt, but probably a little levity would be more appreciated. I hope you're still up to some butt-kicking yourself. Glad you are giving us the updates, tho.
Oh Ashli, I'm so sorry!! I'll be praying for you (always do), but I'll be praying extra hard that your vommitting stops. I do have a suggestion about making your pedialyte taste better. Get the plain unflavored one and melt a popsicle in it. This worked like magic for my boys, I hope it works for you!!! Please, let me know if there is anything I can do to help you. Love ya!

Thanks, Danna. I'm definitely going to try it. It has to be better than the orange-flavored one I got :(
Ashli -
I'm praying for you, my friend!

So sorry, friend.
Try the popsicle trick, or any other ideas that people have. Personally, I've never mastered the art of stopping the upchuck. I hope you do.
