URGENT--Re: Enteral Nutrition

[Guest guest]

my bp is dead - lol -seriously I take 6 salt pills a day to keep it at maybe

where Jodi's is - if you don't feel affects don't panic - same with weight, it

will come - took a long while but i'm back

i wouldn't let them give you a thing - my 2nd GI gave me a " drink that people

with only 8 feet of intestine can handle " BUT not legal

I was 83 lbs & scared and said i'll trust him -BAD MOVE - worst I've been in my

whole sickness!!!

so if you can stick with intro plus a bit of stage 1 until you get some more

healing and maybe get compunded claritin made for you to eliminate the zyrtec

illegals and maybe add anti-fungals but i say stay away from that stuff!!
