Apparently my insurance isn't the devil. They approved the prescription along with a new one--the dissolving Zofran. I am still a little mad that I had to go without any meds for almost 24 hours, but during that time, I realized that while the Zofran isn't working as well as I'd like, it is keeping me from throwing up everything. I kept absolutely nothing down for those 24 hours.
Hubby is keeping up with my cravings. I am still super thirsty all the time, so he bought me a lot of fruit. I am pretty sure I am dehydrated. I still am afraid to eat grapes after pregnancy #2 where I threw them up every time I ate them. But cantaloupe is so yummy, and super juicy. And the KFC he got for me last night was great! Mama loves her fried chicken!
I go to the doctor tomorrow and I am going to try to wrangle an ultrasound. I am afraid I am only 6 weeks instead of 8. I am also going to have a talk with him about different meds.
I am officially sick of Saltines and Sprite. Just the thought of eating them makes me gag a little. But mostly it is my hyperactive sense of smell that is doing me in. Every kind of soap smells gross. I have been using my dish soap to wash my hands. And don't even get me started on Poopy diapers.
I am feeling better today. I have an order to finish and ship out. And hubby is home tomorrow.
Thanks for all of your kind words and thoughts in my behalf. You guys are the greatest!
I feel so horrible for you! Glad you have SOME bright spots. :) I can relate with the soap and poopy diapers, I also have to hold my breath when I go in the pantry at work, the combo of smells is just too much!!!
ReplyDeleteHopefully tomorrow should be a good day for you! I'm sorry you aren't feeling well and be sure to keep some liquids in... if you can!
ReplyDeleteI talked to my PA prof today and he said the dissolving Zofran works a lot better. Good luck
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment on my blog. I'm going to put you on my google reader. Congratz on the pregnancy and I hope you feel better soon. It is horrible to be sick! I was really depressed when I was pregnant with Addie. I was excited to be pregnant but throwing up and sick all of the time I just felt completely desperate. Let me know if you need anything.
ReplyDeleteOh and I think I need some BYU bows! I'll call you and set up a time to come get them.
Thanks,
Marenda
Props to husband who helps out. They are best when you are feeling like crap!!!
