Whew, that sounds tough. I went through something similar 2 years ago but your experience was worse. It really sounds like your doctors were very good and that's very important. An accurate diagnosis early on is so important.

Someone had recommended taking ensure as a way of keeping the weight on. I did that as well. Ensure Plus has 12g of fat though which was difficult to handle. Normal ensure has 6g which was easier to digest.

Thanks for posting your ailments. Many are too embarassed to do so.

I HAVE A NEW UPDATE:[/I]


On September 1, 2014, the doctor's OK'd the usage of my PORTACATH, implanted in my chest. )It was installed on September 26.

The implant is now usable to be able to be fed intravenously with a TPM. A one liter bag of nutrients, plus some hydration.

Due to it's usage for the last 5 days, I was able to finally start gaining weight (intend of losing ½ lb. per day). Saturday I weighed 134 lbs ( weighed 172 lbs before my ordeal) and this morning I weighed in at 146! I am gaining between 1 and 2 lbs per day, thanks to my TPM!

WOOOOO-HOOOOO!

Well...that's a start. Tell them to upgrade the bag to Cajuama size asap.
You're doing great, Udo. Glad to hear this.

I think the bag is larger than the CAGUAMA that the beer comes in, Dennis.
