Just a quick update to let you know that some more good news has come my way. I think I mentioned a couple posts ago that I am now hooking up to my TPN only 6 days a week. In addition, I have a new dietician at my TPN company and she talked to me about lowering the number of hours I’m actually hooked up. So, as of yesterday, I called and my pharmacist talked me through changing my pump so that I’m now on a 12-hour cycle instead of a 14, but with the same volume as before. Whoo hoo! If my body responds well to this, then they’ll lower it to 10 hours. AMAZING! Just wanted to share my bit of good news and to thank you all for your continued prayers. However, this morning has already spent much of my waking time in the bathroom with stomach discomfort and pain, so….we’ll just have to wait and see if it gets any better.
I’m managing to maintain my weight on my skipped days, but eating so much is actually quite difficult. Someday, I hope to not have to keep my eye so rigidly on the scale, but until then, I praise God for keeping me healthy this month and allowing me to keep in enough nutrients to gain back two of the pounds I lost last week.
In other news, tomorrow is Jeff’s birthday, and he doesn’t know I have a little surprise in store. Are you wondering why I even posted that on the blog? Well, he rarely ever reads it unless I tell him he should. So, if you’re friends with him on Facebook, send him a little message. I want him to have a fantastic day!
