I was sorely disappointed by my mail just now. I ordered a case and some other accessories for my e-reader. They were shipped from California, so I was not expecting for a few more days. I ingdom. am however expecting my one hope of gastroparesis (henceforth GP) symptom management short of surgery. The non FDA-approved drug domperidone is winging its way to me from the United Kingdom. I have been having horredndously bad GP days for the last few days. I cannot tolerate solid food so am forced to rely on a full liquid diet consisting of three nutrition shakes a day and water. Yummy. Today I have so much abdominal pain, despite resorting to all liquids.
I don't understand. I am on an antibiotic in hopes of helping the stomach empty faster. I take it like clockwork. I still feel awful. I need the new drug to come yesterday.
Back to the mail. I checked it tonight. After digging past a stack of junk mail, I saw three good sized mailers sitting there. My heart,may have beat a tiny bit faster.Finally, I could look forward to feeling even a little better. I ripped the packages open and they were not foreign drugs. They were e-reader accessories. I am sad now.
Come on drugs!
Edited to add: It CAME! I will start it tomorrow at breakfast. Hopefully my salvation has come in a small cardboard box sporting a customs sticker.
