Day six of work this week is finally over! I’m absolutely exhausted; all I want to do is go home and curl up on the sofa for a few hours before bed. I don’t know what to eat for dinner though… I should probably sort that out before getting too comfy.

Thank goodness I’m off work until Wednesday.

whatcanieat:

But still had a good day. I’m working again tomorrow, which’ll be the sixth day in a row. At least I have two days off to recover after.

whatcanieat:

And I’m ok so far. I cheated a little with my gluten free diet last night and had curly fries with my dinner. I didn’t bloat though so it’s not too bad. I’m also feeling a lot better than I have been this week. I just hope I can last the weekend; I’m working six days this week so I may have to hibernate on Monday.

whatcanieat:

…Of no longer taking the Azathioprine. I didn’t throw up and so far, my stomach and bowels have been fine. We’ll see how it goes for the rest of the week. I need to call the ibd nurse again on Sunday to update them on how my symptoms have been and they’ll hopefully find some new meds to replace my prednisolone when I come off them in two weeks.

whatcanieat:

So splitting the dosage didn’t work; I was still heaving my guts up this morning. I’ve spoken to my GP who recommeded I stop taking the Azathioprine for the time being, at least until I hear back from the ibd nurse. I just hope my bowels don’t take this as an invitation to flare up.

whatcanieat:

I’m going to try splitting my azathioprine so I take one tablet this morning and the other this evening. Also, I’m having a hot chocolate now and taking my meds when I get to work so I’ve got something in my stomach before I take them.
I’m also hoping to hear back from the helpline again today so I should have answers by this afternoon.

whatcanieat:

So, the helpline thinks my throwing up in the mornings after taking my meds is to do with my azathioprine but because I don’t know the dosage off the top of my head, I need to call them again to get them to call me back tomorrow. I just need to remember to bring my meds with me to work.
