Hey guys. I went in and saw Dr. Hutcher yesterday. He is very concerned and at a loss to tell me what to do. We have tried several nauessa medicines and nothing seems to be working. He has told me to start walking every day for exercise. So I will start to do that today. He gave me some suggestions on food to try and we will see what happens. I have gone from getting sick every time I eat to about 80% still getting sick. Dr. Hutcher likes that. He thinks I will be turning a corner now! Yeah! So I am to stay on my feeding tube and try to eat when I can. I go back to see him in two weeks. Thanks everyone for your support and concern. I really am hoping I am turning a corner. I know it will get better. I figure I will just get all my complications over with early and then go on to enjoy my life! :-) Have a great day everyone!
