Guest guest Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Hi All, I am feeling much better. The cough will probably continue for a week or two, but overall on the mend. A terrible 1 1/2 hour spasm this morning was not the alarm clock I was looking for, but it was VERY effective in rousing me from sleep. Just wondered ... I have the most awful taste in my mouth for the last 3 days. Brushing my teeth, rinsing with mouthwash, gum ... nothing is working. I hope my breath does not smell as bad as it tastes. I AM NOT having any reflux. My stomach IS NOT upset. This is something new. I am wondering if this could be from the cold and sore throat, but I have never experienced it before. Suggestions or comments welcome. Kathie in Pittsburgh where the Steelers will win tomorrow!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 he is not getting in enough fiber, I have suggested to change what he is being tubefed (I wasn't involved in the originial order), as he was receiving glucerna and ensure. I didn't think about the probiotics, is this something he can add to his formula?

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 Bariatric Advantage just came out with a probiotic. Depending upon the tube size/flushes, I bet it could be considered.
