3 days with out tea

  • wow- having a bad tummy sure is tough on addictions
  • that is things like tea and coffee and chocolate and.......
  • I gave up chocolate quite a few months ago unless
  • Miss Ashley tempts me ---:-) and that is not often.
  • and coffee and I parted ways many years ago
  • and now I have decided to go tea free for 2 weeks
  • and see if this will helps and then maybe forever
  • depending on the outcome-
  • which leaves me drinking water and water and water
  • so I fill my little teapot (4cups) twice a day and add
  • ice-cubes now and then-
  • I do some milk in between.
  • It is not so bad giving something up but
  • the hard part was ''not'' making the tea
  • it was such a in grown habit
  • I did have an appointment with my specialist
  • for Aug. 30 to make some decisions in regards
  • to this problem and the office called yesterday
  • and changed it to October 8.
  • yes, I did cry as this just seems to be going
  • on far too long so I will keep this appointment
  • if it is not changed again and also ask for a new
  • specialist- this has been going on for 2 years now
  • and every appointment made has been redated-
  • pray for me to find medical treatment soon
  • we know what is wrong but now something
  • also needs to be done ........
  • I am really lost as how or what to eat
  • anymore
  • any one interested in Nutcracker Syndrome can
  • google it - plus Barrets Disease
  • do not take my spelling as correct *
  • other wise I am fine-boo hoo
  • and alas, no to any of those drinks
  • other than the instant breakfasts
  • I have to avoid high fat also
  • The office did tell me if the pain increases too
  • much to go to the city emergency rather
  • than our local town as they can get a
  • the specialist quicker------(-there are no pain
  • meds one can take for this--)
  • however I sure would rather have things
  • taking care of before an emergency=
  • there: I did my tea whine(LOL)
  • now I will go drink some more water.

I am so sorry about your appt. being moved ahead. I know your healthcare system is different from ours but I do wish you could see a specialist sooner and try and get some relief and guidance as to what to eat/drink. You are in my prayers.

Good Morning, Oma,
It is the pits when they put you off for so long!!! I'm in a six week holding pattern waiting to have eye surgery. Just wish it could be over and done! Hope you find relief soon. Blessing!

I understand how hard it can be to give these things up. I know for me, if I had to do without coffee, it would be quite the shock to my system. A morning without coffee is like... sleep!:)

I hope you can get to another specialist sooner, and praying that you don't end up in the emergency department, although that might be a blessing if it got a specialist to do something sooner rather than later. Hmm, good thing the Lord knows what we need, better than we do!
