Kim, Hang in there girl. I was wondering about you myself and asked Lisa if you went to the Barnes Support group last night. Let me know if you need anything...anything at all, and I'll be there for you. You've been such an inspiration to me and I'm keeping the prayers going for you. Stay in touch Kim.... Love ya, Vonni

Hi Kim - Well you look incredible. Sorry you've been sick. I read your profile, and I'm a little confused. What kind of tube do you have? Is it a PEG tube - sticks out of your abdomen around the stomach area? If so, what reason were you given for not taking it out if you're not using it. Where exactly are you hurting from the tube - inside your stomach or the outside skin area? Please go see the doctor who put in the tube about this pain. OR - do you have a tube that goes down your nose, throat & into the stomach - NG tube? This kind is usually for short term, while the PEG is for long term. Did you go to your WLS surgeon? Were you given a sugar-free supplement through the tube? Your doctor was probably just trying to supplement what you were taking in by mouth to help you regain the weight. I just said a prayer for you. I hope your health improves soon.
