Instead of going outside, I decided to walk a bit on the treadmill. I think I’m afraid of a repeat of Saturday where I almost ran out of steam on a very short walk. My dad was worried that I would get so tired that I couldn’t walk home.
To take it easy, I set the treadmill at 1.5 mph which is a pace of 40’00”. That’s pretty slow but I didn’t want to fall off the treadmill in case I got too tired. I ended up walking 0.61 miles so almost double Saturday’s short walk. I was still a little tired after the walk but definitely much better than Saturday.
It’s about 7:30 pm and I need to eat some dinner. Unfortunately, my stomach is starting to feel queasy again. I hope I don’t throw up again. I ate half a chicken kabob form Panini Grill and felt okay. If I can get dinner down, maybe I’ll walk a bit more on the treadmill later tonight. Need to make sure I’m physically okay in case UCLA wants to test something at the next transplant appointment.
==========
No luck about throwing up. My stomach felt funny when I went down for dinner so I came back up to my bedroom and took a nap from 8:30 pm to 11:00 pm. At 11:00 pm, I reheated some of the chicken kabob and my mom gave me some chicken soup. After eating about half the chicken kabob + rice, I drank some soup and immediately threw everything up. Judging by the amount of liquids, it looked like I wasn’t digesting anything for awhile. Now I have an empty stomach again.
On the plus side, I felt a little better lying down. Breathing was a bit easier and so has the coughing. Maybe it was just a cold.
