Dennis is still trying to figure out all the acid reflux, throwing up and nausea. I thought it was all the same thing, but evidently each symptom is different and distinct.
Yesterday he looked up feeding tube problems on the Internet, and came up with a few solutions that he tried today.
He had the feeding slowed down, but half shutting the valve on the feeder. This was suppose to help with nausea. He also laid down while being fed, and this was suppose to also help with nausea. So when I came home he was in bed being fed. He wasn't nauseous. But as soon as I got him out of bed, he felt the acid reflux hit him.
Tonight we will see about the vomiting. He has an appointment with a GI specialist, but it's a month away. He is completely tired of this, and I can't say that I blame him. I am tired of it, too.
Until later,
Ann and Dennis
