Woke up feeling much better this morning than yesterday evening. Went through the usual morning motions and then attempted to feed myself 2 ozof Ensure via the PEG tube. Got a little dizzy, painful, nauseous, etc. Had to lay down for about an hour. So a bit of a frightening start. But I pushed on. Started adding the Zofran to my regimen, and that seems to have helped. Felt much better as the day progressed. Even did laundry; well not the folding, but the other stuff.
The nutritionist came in the early evening and dropped off the formula. 100% covered by insurance, so by golly, that’s what I’m getting. I’m supposed to take in 7 cans per day (2485 calories). I don’t think so! I may do 5. I am still trying to lose a little bit more weight. She did suggest running the formula in via gravity, so I did 2 cans like that tonight and it went down much smoother that way. I’m liking this tube…
