Today has been a good day so far.
Went to Whole Paycheck and picked up some soy protein/vitamin powder because I think the pill vitamins have been stacking in my stomach and making me feel worse. Also some other baby foods and some banana baby oatmeal. Gotta have variety.
No intense bloating, nausea, or discomfort yet today, making me think things are not so bad. Had applesauce for breakfast, a cookie(!) later, and just had about two small scoops of mashed potatoes and gravy. Have been sipping iced coffee with protein/vitamin powder in it for the last few hours. Dinner will be indulging in half a turkey burger because dammit, I need some meat.
There is definitely something to the stress connection. The worse I feel mentally, the worse I feel physically. I realize this is a "duh" statement, but it makes me think that maybe there's an ulcer making it worse?
Last night, I went to dinner with my friends and watched them eat some ridiculously delicious food. Man I wanted that beef brisket. The garlic soup was good though and I tolerated wine for a good part of the evening. I think there was an air bubble or something in my stomach, or at least that's what it felt like. It felt like air/food was just sitting in my esophagus. I made myself eat more than I thought was wise and that feeling passed, only to be replaced by mild bloating. But at this point, I'd take the bloating over the feeling like I'm going to hurl or constantly feel the need to burp. I will admit, I ate half of a brownie too. And it was totally worth it.
