As of March 16, 2002- I have recovered almost fully from the recent sepsis and E-coli problems. I am now using my Hickman all the time for my nutrition, and still taking my meds through my j-tube. I have had increased nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and esophogeal spasms, so my doctor has increased some of my meds and added another for a total of about 12 meds. I restarted on the domperidone in Feb and was on a very low dose until this past week when my doctor increased it. I am not feeling any significant changes at this point. I will continue the TPN until my weight is up more, and then we will decide on a plan to keep it up there. G-PACT is going very well. If you have an interest in helping us as a volunteer, have something you could donate (office supplies, etc), know of a company who might be willing to donate, would like to donate money to us yourself, or learn about other ways you can help, please e-mail me at chaston@g-pact.org and I will send the e-mail to the appropriate officer if it is not in an area I can assist you with. Please do not contact any potential donors until you have spoken with us first because there is a protocol we have to follow. The g-PACT site is still under construction at www.g-pact.org .
