Another Update
I am tired and a bit loopy, so I'll make this short and sweet. I had my revision today, my picc is back in with TPN and I have a Jtube, which we'll be using soon. He took me back a generous 50 on both limbs.
I had to have 3 units of blood before surgery as my counts keep dropping, but the blood made me feel great for once. But that is why I revised, because I just couldn't eat/drink or take enough supplements to keep up with my malabsorption. I am hungry and got my catheter out, but on ice chips. Thanks for all the thoughts, prayers and critters.

Aww Charity - you're awfully brave to be posting so soon after surgery. I sure hope this does the trick for you! I also hope you "graduate" from ice chips to real food soon!
