I saw my doctor this evening. I was really worried about giving him this record of the last 48 hrs. I almost considered not showing him everything. But as much as I thought about it, I was totally honest. I won't get anywhere with lying.

To my surprise, he was pleased. He said its not quite enough, but he can see the effort I am putting in. I did purge, more then once, but I wrote it down. He added up the numbers of cc's I took in and said I need about twice this. And he wants to see some food on it on Monday morning at 9am. I was like, really. He said oh yes, we need to monitor this, you know that. And the IV's are still a go until he see's my intake on Monday. I thought I could charm my way out of it, not likely. I tried.

He stressed that I need to hold something solid down. And my fluids need to be more. He asked me about laxatives, I said I had took 60 on the weekend, in one day. I thought the man was going to fall over. Opps. I was honest. Then he asked how much weight I have lost. I said, "I was hoping you would not ask that." He smiled and patiently waited. I told him 20lbs since released from the h, but it has gone up and down in the last few days. He wants to monitor this much more.

So this is what happened, but it was more of a positive experience. He gave good feed back. I felt not so aprehensive.
