Mom was given the ng tube when in the hospital for surgery. While she was there she did fairly well with her feedings, she had some gastric issues but they seemed to pass. Since she has been home she has been getting sick to her stomach halfway through her feedings. I have adjusted the volume to try to have it go slower but it still seems to make no difference. Is it possible that she can't handle the nutren? She had it the entire time she was in the hospital. I worry that maybe I am missing something here.
The visiting nurse doesn't come back till Thursday next week. We meet with the surgeon, ro and mo, Mon., Tues, and Wed.
Other than that issue she is doing fantastic!
Will update on her more later. Any help about her feeding would be greatly appreciated.
