Aww hun...you are just soo sick right now, anything going in is going to cause issues.
Bless you. Soon, sweetheart, soon they'll get you fixed up.
 
I know but its just sooooo frustrating!

The rice pudding wasn't too bad so might have the odd shake and a bowl of that.

Alex, my youngest, said to me this morning he hoped I didn't 'react' to my new shakes.

Aw don't they just break your heart?

He also offered to taste them just to make sure they were nice!
 
That's quite a lot of good flavours actually, better than I thought they would be. Not sure if anyone would like the unflavoured one though. Glad your not feeling sick anymore!


NB that is just so sweet, sending him a hug :hug:

The strawberry ensure shake is delicious! Just like a thick milkshake.

Might try another one later tonight. Going easy for now as I have only got 10 but will get some more next week if all goes ok.
 
You can also try resource energy drinks. Chocolate and banana are really nice...just like thick milkshakes. apricot ok as well. Your gp can put them on prescription as well. Also calogen is a really calorific banana flavoured supplement where you just take 30ml three times per day- It is very calorific and just a mouthful. If you mainly have colitis then it will really help. I can't tolerate it as my small bowel misbehaves.

Hope you can manage whatever you go for and get better soon. The stronger you are before surgery the better!
 
Hi Shazz, glad to hear the strawberry went down well :) I would say based on the other flavours you have listed the banana shouldn't let you down either.
 
Thanks guys.

Had a cup of fennel tea as well and had sips of each alternately and i think it helped cause I didn't feel sick at all.

Keep getting urges to go to the loo but nothing comes out. Am like that most of the day and night. Its really annoying!
 
Hiya Shazza
only just caught up with this, hope you're doin better?
With ya on the tired thang, in fact I'm off back to bed in a mo. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
but..... sending some more squishy hugs your way, there's some in t'other thread waitin for ya!
xxxxxxx
 
Not feeling sick - always a good thing :)

The urge to go but nowt coming out - sigh, this disease is such a fickle beast. The next issue will be bloody constipation!
 
Thanks Joan! Squishy hugs always welcome.

AB - it gets on your bloody nerves doesn't it? Didn't know whether it was because less going in etc. I give up trying to guess anymore just try to go with the flow!
 
Am having the orange flavour one now.

Its not bad, not overly orange. Was a bit worried cause cant have anything to orangey but it is ok.

Tummy is making some really loud noises! :yfrown:

Probably not happy with the lack of solid food!
 
I think it wants to remind you its there and waiting beings you are trying stuff that might actually help :) My tummy has been a bit of a noisy git recently as well, makes me laugh as I never thought it could make such funny sounds.
