Hope you feel better soon Lulu

LuluBread 04-28-2017 05:23 PM

Thank you SW.

Dee74 04-28-2017 05:52 PM

That sounds awful LuluB. Do you need a Dr?

LuLu, how are you feeling? Make sure you are hydrating. I'm sure you know cramping can be from dehydration and since you started working out, you might have surprised some muscles. Just a thought.

LuluBread 04-29-2017 11:57 AM

Very sick. In and out of sleep. Headache, intestines are sore cramping, dizzy with chills and ears ringing. Just getting worse...

SimplyFree 04-29-2017 12:02 PM

Not good......do you need to go into an urgent care? Flu or something else??

MsCooterBrown 04-29-2017 12:28 PM

No one can tell you what to do...we are here to offer support. Twenty some odd days in...I am hoping you can get checked out. Please take care.

Dee74 04-29-2017 04:19 PM

It has been four years since the last drink or drug for me. It might seem like a rough road in the first 9 months but can be done. Set nine months as the goal. Nine months, in my opinion, is the toughest chip to get in the program. Once you make nine months, it will statistically very probable that you will get a year.

SimplyFree 04-29-2017 08:28 PM

Lulu, I hope to hear from you soon. Prayers and thoughts.

SimplyFree 04-30-2017 04:22 AM

Good morning LuLu, I hope you are feeling better??!

LuluBread 04-30-2017 05:41 PM

I have diverticulitis. I'm sure it's from the alcohol, because all I eat are veggies and fruits, protein and greens drinks....quinoa, nuts, salads. I've got meds to calm the spasms/cramps. Going to get a CT scan. Felt as if there was a pinball machine in my intestines shooting golfball sized pinballs. 26 days in and I'm weathering the storm, dealing with the results of the addiction. Thank you all for your concern. Hope everyone had a nice weekend.

SimplyFree 04-30-2017 06:18 PM

Wow Lulu.....very painful stuff! I'm glad you went in and got yourself cared for. Hopefully it is something that can be treated with rest and maybe adjusting your diet. I'm sure the CT scan will be helpful. You have my continued thoughts and prayers. Blessing my friend!

SimplyFree 05-01-2017 04:41 PM

Wishing you well my friend!

SimplyFree 05-02-2017 06:57 PM

Checking in on you LuLu.......blessings and health my friend.

One month ago I stopped drinking. Got sick twice and in bed for 3 days and 4 days out of the thirty. My stomach is still a mess and down to a liquid, puree soup, applesauce, banana diet...which I like. The barometric pressure has given me a headache for the past 6 days too. I'm trying to schedule the CT scan on Saturday so I don't lose another day of work. Looking forward to peaceful happy days after I'm well...

SimplyFree 05-03-2017 05:41 AM

Congratulations on one month!!! That is an awesome milestone. It is also great to hear you are taking care of yourself. I'm glad the adjusted diet suits you. I look forward to hearing how the CT scan goes.

LuluBread 05-03-2017 05:36 PM

Had a good day for month one. It's been a good month regardless of getting sick. Thanks for checking in on me...I'll start logging on more once I have little more energy.

SimplyFree 05-03-2017 08:09 PM

I'm sorry you are ill...and in pain. You have my prayers for strength and encouragement. Blessings....

Soberwolf 05-03-2017 10:46 PM

Outstanding Lulu grats on 1 month :grouphug:

LuluBread 05-04-2017 07:31 PM

The stomach pain has subsided and have Dr appointment next Thursday. I now just started getting a sore throat. LOL. I won't do it, but a part of me (ha! my other self) says take a shot of tequila and kill the bug.

SimplyFree 05-04-2017 08:04 PM

No tequila for you! How about some honey throats lounges. I'm glad you told your alter ego....No! Besides it will help strengthen your immune system. LOL! I'm sure you know of some healthy drink that is full of vitamin C! I'm glad to hear your stomach is less painful and that you are being watched over by a doctor. Keep at it LuLu!

LuluBread 05-05-2017 04:26 AM

Really beginning to worry about my stomach.

SimplyFree 05-05-2017 05:24 AM

Go back in and see the DR today. Don't wait!

LuluBread 05-06-2017 08:56 PM

Went to dr yesterday and got antibiotics. They seem to be working...I'm just a little exhausted and will check in here and get in on other threads tomorrow. 32 days in. Now that I'm starting to feel better, how to date sober? This will be challenging...

bradly22 05-06-2017 09:27 PM

Hang in there. I'm sending good vibes your way.

Dee74 05-06-2017 09:38 PM

I'd put off the dating for a while Lulu. I was a million different people in my first 90 days.

I really recommend waiting until you have a handle on not drinking in social situations and on just who sober you is :)

Soberwolf 05-06-2017 10:21 PM

Congratulations on day 32 Lulu x

Yep. What Dee says.

Sober friendships on the other hand could be a very good thing!
