what i'm eating these days

So, much like my darling Jess I am unable to eat really anything these days. Yesterday when I puked it was not solids. I am living mainly on Bolthouse juices. We have an excellent juicer, but my mother and I, in a moment of cruel honesty, admitted we do not have the energy to juice. I am also not going to drink anymore carrot juice, because I had to drink so so so much of it in high school (nothing has more vitamin A). So, these are my favorite. Vedge is a great meal, it's full of veggies and a great way to get vitamins. It's sort of like drinking really good tomato soup. I also love C-Boost (tropical fruit yumness), Green Goodness (they disguise the veggie taste... so it's sort of like a sour apple jolly rancher with no added sugar), and finally, the one, the only Perfectly Protein (which tastes like eggnog with cinnamon to me).

This is what I consume with perhaps some sort of bowl of fiber intense cereal or every few days some salmon or scrabbled eggs. Fiber is really important right now so that my stomach doesn't have to overwork.  I am also taking the wonderfully fiberful Metamucil tablets which I can feel when they hit my stomach and sort of explode. It feels weird, sort of like being tickled inside out. So, I am doing well over all, I just have to be careful not to be to physically active or put anything fatty or hard to digest on my stomach.

Do we have a diagnosis yet? Are you kidding? Probably Non-peptic dyspepsia of the stomach lining along with some sort of viral infection in my chest. I haven't gotten the results back from my chest x-ray, but hopefully there will be more clues there. I feel progress slowly creeping forward.
