First off hello! I am new here and I am 5 wks out of my surgery. It has not been fun so far. I had my surgery on July 18, 2012 was in hospital for 4 days and released. I was re-admitted one week later for dehydration for 3 days and than released. To be re-admitted 3 days later for dehydration/dysphagia was in hosp for a week. I can't drink or I am sick or it won't stay down. While in the hospital the last time I had a picc line put in. I have been on TPN now for 2 wks. Still can't get anything down. I have lost 40lbs pre-surgery and now I am gaining weight from TPN. I hope I am not the only one with this problem (not that I would want anyone to suffer like have been)

Sorry for all the complications you're having.

Do they know why you can't keep anything down?

Here's hoping the storm blows over soon!!
