Donna,
I hope for your mom's sake and your's too that the tube comes out soon. Sounds like she is having an awful time. My mom could not tolerate Nutren. She did best when she first started on Jevity. My guess is that, based on everything we tried, the Nutren might not have enough water in it as part of the formula, or else the fiber may be filling her up too much. My mom has had her tube for 4 months now and tolerates the feedings well, although still vomits every once in awhile if she has a lot of mucous and starts a coughing fit right after eating. Overall it was a lot of trial and error, but maybe the Jevity would help??? We also use Carnation VHC to cut back on the volume required for some feedings. My mom takes in a lot now - 2 cans of Jevity twice a day and one can of carnation twice a day (a total of over 2,000 calories).

I hope this helps. Send me a message if there is anything else I can do to help. We have been through the clogs, the vomiting, you name it!

I hope your mom is doing well. Sounds like, given all that has happened she is really doing a great job, as are you.

Amy
