Bama Red Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 You know, Linn, it's really funny. I'm here in ICU, and I feel pretty dang good. In the two days I've been here they've pulled twenty-seven pounds of fluid off my abdomen. I'll be back down to my fighting weight before too long! How well I do will depend, in a very large part, on how well I behave. It looks like the preliminary rules will be pretty large doses of diuretics twice a day, no more than 1500 ml of fluid (all kinds - water soup, milk, soda, etc.) daily and no more than 2000 mg of sodium/day. When I was in the ER waiting for a room, they gave me a ham sammich on wheat bread, with one packet each of mustard and fat-free mayo. No lettuce, cheese, maters or anything else. The packaging label said the "healthy" sammich had 1468 mg of sodium!!! Guess I'm gonna have to join Badger in eating tofu and sprouts (yeeccchhhhh!)!

(Three gallon tapped out of your belly ... I'm imagining three, one-gallon jugs stuffed into my own Equatorial Bulge ... no wonder it was a-crowdin' yer lungs!) Many thanks for the report, Pard, especially that first line where you're a-tellin' me how much better you're feelin'! I'm trying to think of a good smart aleck response to Badger's tofu and bean sprouts diet ... don't believe I can improve on your astute comment!

Judge'm All Duncan, SASS#67320 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I feel for you my friend. On one of my short stays they drew 70 pounds of fluids of me. One of the things that we have done is cut out the sodium in our diet. That means eating nothing processed and nothing out of a can. Also no soft drinks . You can do this my old friend. Praying for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Wa'l now the old year just went a-whistlin' past and it's shrinkin' in the Rear View Mirror. May it take misfortune, grief and loss with it, and especially the several aggravations you've had to put up with! Happy New Year, pard, know that several cowboys planted the knee of their chaps in the dirt and took their hat in their hand already this mornin' for you, and we ain't about to stop now! (I'm clear the hell and gone up in the Ohio territory. Was I closer I'd try to smuggle you in a keg of ... oh, wait a minute, fluid restriction, beer is out ... well, a bottle of Old Crud Cutter ... no, wait a minute, fatty liver, scratch that idea ... okay, how about ... no, there's the dietary restrictions ... daggone, Bama, about all I could do would be get us both in trouble!)
