I enjoyed a wonderful 6 mos remission but have been battling bowel obstructions the last 3 weeks. Mostly in the hospital with NG tubes! Ugh! So the plan now is to send me home on TPN and have chemo to shrink the cancer and open blockages. I really think things are getting better but am afraid to take a chance without the TPN. Hopefully it will be just short term. TPN is strong IV nutrition that is given at home when you cant eat.
Hopefully I will l be home by Wed and getting my next dose of chemo that day.
I really feel well and this has just been another bump in the road.
Wishing you all well!
