Food hates me…

…and the feeling is becoming very mutual. This weekend I finally felt like I was recovered from the “incident” last week. Although I ate nothing but cheerios and ginger ale the first day, and plain white bread and rice for the next 2, I was tolerating various meats and vegetables…even some dairy without hesitation by Sunday. I think some of the slow recovery was psychological in nature, but either way, I was good to go yesterday, which I thought was perfect b/c my first day of home study was today.

This morning I woke up with an upset stomach that has intensified throughout the day, accompanied by chills and sweats, and, once again, an inability to tolerate food. I keep forcing down rice and ginger ale thinking it will settle my stomach but it doesn’t seem to be doing any harm or good.

I haven’t been hugging the toilet seat like last weekend but the discomfort is becoming debilitating as the day goes on. It is really hard to read 250 pages about the cardiovascular system when all you can focus on is your own poorly functioning digestive system.
