I see from the other posts that it just gets worse in the first few weeks.

I still feel pretty nauseated, dizzy, weak, have trouble with eating/drinking, spend a lot of time sleeping.

Also I've had a rash for the past 3 weeks on armpits, hips, chest, legs and elsewhere (typically around skin folds or areas touching clothes etc)

No bowel movements in 3 weeks. I don't eat much and only liquids.

Big sore on tongue and other areas in mouth; had to stop drinking juice as it was irritating.

RO wanted to put me on IV for hydration for 4 hours, but my ride could not wait that long. RO said I could do the same at home by drinking a lot of liquid.
