Hi all,

Well, finally back home...

I've been thoroughly examined by my own doc and he had radiology make a film by using contrast fluid. Thank God I the tube is OK in my intestines and no leakages there, furthermore they were very afraid that last weeks infection might have cause some perforation in my intestines thus creating leakage but I am glad to tell you that's not the case.

I had run 80 cc/hr during the night and probably the pressure at the moment is too much, thus causing leakage, so I am back to 40 cc/hr now and it seems to work, no more leakage so far. Yet, this does mean back to 24/7 tube feeding, together with normal food during the day as to get back to normal eating rythm.

The two loose stitches will have to be stiched back, but they do that next week (when I am asleep for the dilatation probably) as it still is stiched with one stitch. I can plaster it very well, so no worries there.

Pfew, I am relieved.

Love,

Isabella
