Okay, it's now tomorrow. Get thee to thine doctor!

I can't believe you ate a salad! When they say soft food, think Jell-o, pudding, cottage cheese, mashed potatoes. If it requires chewing or is high in fiber, STAY AWAY! Now get to the doctor before the only food you're able to eat will be injected via I.V. line.

And tell Evo Child to stop playing with kittens and get over there to watch out for you.

Ok, I have a Dr's appointment this afternoon. My doctor was full so I'm seeing Dr Gore. :eek: This sounds ominous.

Ok, how does this sound, a Hardees angus Thickburger on sourdough bread with beef broth, run through the blender.

Only if you're just planning on sniffing it. :wink: Just avoid the Food Thread entirely. I'm sure that is one of the hardest parts of recovery, seeing and smelling yummy food and knowing you can't touch it.

Just to be careful, I've relocated the sisterhood's chocolate stash to a new, undisclosed location (I just hope Cheney isn't eating it all when I'm not looking). You're not being told where it is or given a key until you have a clean bill of health and doctor's note telling us you are allowed to eat solid foods again. :biggrin:

I just called her cell and she didn't answer. So I left a message telling her she'd better be at her Dr.s office or she's in REALLY DEEP doodoo. :biggrin:

I just got home from the doctor, Tsu you called while I was there.

I am on a Z-Pak, so I should be better in a day or two. They tested for strep and it was negative.

You can't just cut it into very small pieces?

Eat meat with some slices of kiwi fruit. Kiwi fruit contains enzymes that break down proteins. I know this from experience when I marinated some steak with slices of kiwi. The outer surface made for nice gravy.

They didn't say anything. Just prescribed Z-Pac. Over and out.

Oh, and I've lost 6 pounds since Friday. Six pounds in 5 days. I know it will stabilize in a few days.

I had to look up what Z-pak is: Azithromax (also known by the brand name Zithromycin)
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/medmaster/a697037.html
http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/zithromaxsusp_ids.htm

First I saw the part that it is prescribed to treat STDs, and after I stopped laughing and pondering how Evo got an STD in her throat (must've been some REALLY nice male nurses at that hospital :smile:), got further along and saw it's used for throat infections caused by Strep. I haven't found anything that tells how broad of a spectrum of bugs it is effective for. Hopefully they'll check the culture for anything else other than strep and make sure it's susceptible to azithromycin and prescribe something else if it isn't. It's in the same family as erythromycin (it's actually a derivative of it).

Z-Pak is what they prescribe for upper respiritory infections now, highly effective.

My mom made me the best banana milkshakes and potato soups when I got my wisdom teeth out. I highly recommend both for the eating impaired. If you've got a blender you can whip up some really creative stuff.

Well good, Evo, progress. A doctor's visit and antibiotics and everything. Now if you can actually follow your eating instructions (at least for a few days) we'll give you a gold star. :biggrin:

:smile: My boyfriend agrees. But, he dutifully remembers to keep his towel on the left side of the towel rack when I visit, because I've told him I'm always right and he doesn't dare challenge it. :biggrin:

Glad to hear that you're improving, Evo. If you need something supplementary for nourishment, I highly recommend either Ensure Plus or Boost. They're both very tasty liquid meals that were originally developed for tube-feeding hospital patients. Some drug stores have their own house brands of the same thing as well.
Unless your photos are incredibly deceptive, you'll disappear if you lose another 5 pounds.

Borch soup is good and adaptable, it can be made sweet or savory.

Hey! It might be a way of teaching Evo's stomach how to vomit anew.

Last time I heard, they were still practicing medicine.

Woah. I came in late and don't have enough time to read the whole thread, but I'll just pop in and say hello.

From the look of these last few comments I probably have plenty of catching up to do.

Thanks Jeans. If you become a doctor, you can take care of me!
