Thank you. I will read in more detail at home. I called the doc and we were sent to the ER. Severe dehydration, but, other than low magnesium...or was it manganese? He was good. They said we need better training for the PEG. I would like a home health nurse to come for a few days. They are sending us home, we think, after 2liters of saline. But said to get 60 ml of fluid 4 times a day plus nutrition, daily.
I will tell them we need a pump. Not being at home 3 days meant I didn't know what was going on.
Thank you for your info and support!
