I wish they would let you go TPN and be home with it and remove that stent!!

i think im going to go ahead & requwst that they remove the stent since its making me so sick & just keep me in the hospital until it heals because i cant deal with this nausea anymore. i absolutely cant. its too much. ;'(

Yes, it's with a picc line,,it sounds like what you need.

i think u may have been reading old posts. im doing far from good right now. dealing with a leak, cant eat or drink... only vomit.

I am so glad you are feeling better. Keep up the good work so you don't sick again.

i emailed my nurse practioner & told her it needs to come out! lets see wat she says. she said we will talk today.

the stent today is actually causing pain!!!!

[jasleeve 440]

im going to tell my nurse practioner that if they can stop the vomitting somehow, im willing to keep the stent in but if the vomitting cant be controlled, the stent must come out!

i dont wanna feel like i wasted 2weeks for nothing. i pray that maybe my leak is already healed but something tells me that with the lack of nutrition & constant vomitting.... i doubt it.

I am so sorry jasleeve, you were right I had read an old post. I see now that things are not going well for you and my heart goes out to you. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

[MeMeMEEE 206]

I worry that the vomiting is just going to keep the leak open with it contracting the stomach. I hope not - I guess if the expert isn't worried maybe not.

Can't they give you a TPN through a PICC line until your issues are resolved? I can't believe they haven't suggested that to you. You can do that at you own home, you don't phave to be hospitalized. They could also put other meds and Vitamins in with it. Nothing goes into your stomach and you do not gain weight. i was on one for 18 days cuz they thought I had a leak in my esophagus from the hiatial hernia part of the surgery. If you have a leak, I would think that they would have put you on it already. i am praying for you and just can't imagine what you must be going through!

The TPN is for food and nourishment. I was on 1300 calorie bag per day, but you don't gain weight and then after you stop it, you lose some Water weight the first week off. i think you should ask about it since it sounds to me like it would do you good while the leak is healing.

I was on a much higher calorie tpn..I gained 13 pounds but it was worth it and I lost the 13 pounds a little over a week after I went off of it. If you feel as bad as you say you do,,I can't believe they haven't suggested this to you either.
