Another blockage

I had one blockage last week. Much worse then the two previous ones. And today I have another obstruction.

For breakfast I ate a lemon square and one egg cheese omelet. I guess all it took was that lemon square because less then an hour later the cramping started. Very painful. I stopped eating or drinking until just a few minutes ago I had a jello. So I guess it's mashed potatos for dinner tonight.

I go to Portland to have a test done on Friday. It will take most the day. I did call Dr. L and he wants me in the emergency room if I start vomiting, or don't pass gas or have a BM within the next 24 hours. Otherwise I go in on friday for the test as planned.

I can not believe how frustrating this is.

Thursday and Friday's eating

I didn't post Thursdays menu because I ate 3 questionable foods that caused D. So I will just post the three items. I don't know which was the problem or it could of been the combo. Alfredo sauce from Mac's. Gin and tonic. or Ice cream. All are low fiber but not low residue. Up all night with D.

Health-No bm, but after being up all night I am not surprised or worried.

Steamed clams

I went out to a local restaurant for my sister's birthday today. Creekside Grill. I was a little nervous because I did not want to make a mistake. I was relieved when I saw steamed clams on the menu. It is something that has not bothered me so far. And I enjoy it. My fat grams were way over the top today. Ch. Chip cookies are something I need to not make as often. Definitely ate more today than I have been today. Hopefully I will still sleep ok.

Soluable and insoluable fiber

This morning, starting at 8:45am I started having bathroom issues. Didn't last long. Most of what I ate yesterday I thought was safe. But I am thinking the Mozzarella might be the culprit. I hope not. I love cheese and did not eat much of it yesterday but I might be totally cutting out dairy.


I have been reading a lot about soluable vs insoluable fiber. I need to wait another day or two for my body to totally heal, then I am going to experiment adding a little more soluable fiber into my diet. I need my body to be healed first so I have a good baseline.


Breakfast

• coffee


• creamer

Lunch

• Bow tie pasta with pizza sauce


• 2 pieces of toast

Skipped dinner so that I wouldn't have problems and miss Baileys last school concert.

Health-My abdomen is feeling almost normal now. BM-8:45am-L. Butter is the only dairy I had today, so I will see if I have the same problems tomorrow or if I will have improved. Hungry but it is 9:40 and we just got home from concert. Too late to eat or I will not get sleep tonight.
