Well, I had nausea and had a vomiting episode, and it came back up. I ended up with nausea, so far so good. I did get blocked for a few days, but I got unblocked and have been fine. Not much pain on this feed, but lots of wind, and I had a leak this morning. Not bloody had one of them for ages. Hopefully, I will find out my future plan on Monday. Thanks to everyone. 😀

Hi Hatlady and all,
I've had my ostomy for over 50 years, since I was a kid, and didn't think I really needed to be part of the ostomy site. But once active, I came to realize, that although I may not need help at the time, I was able to reach out and help others in need. Back in the day, before stoma therapists, I use to visit new patients in the hospital or homes ... While professionals are great, it is also good to be able to speak with people with personal experience. I was a free member for awhile, but after writing often, I was given free months. I then started paying, and decided to just take lifetime membership. After all, I was going to have my ostomy for the rest of my life. I'm one of those people who can disappear for a few months at a time, but I'm always glad that the site is here, I can return and reconnect with old friends, and make new ones. This is an excellent site ... Best regards to all ... and Best wishes for a Healthy and Happy New Year.

Nasal gastric tube, it draws out contents of the stomach via your nose, I believe. I've had them, but it's been a while...not very attractive or fun!

One of the worst experiences I've ever had! It just didn't want to go down, and I was choking and screaming between chokes, asking them to stop. 'It's almost there, hold on', the nurse said. No it wasn't! They finally got it down, but I felt like I'd been tortured for sure. My sympathy to anyone who goes through that!

Ng goes into the stomach and a nj goes further and has less chance of it coming back out and has worked so far.

Mine is for nutrition feed, not to draw stuff out, but to put stuff in. So far, so good. Hopefully, going home next week. Five weeks in the hospital is not good. xx

Nasal gastric tube goes in the stomach for feeding and goes past the stomach further and stays in better. 😀
