Hey. I read your response about Bulemia. Between your ADHD, your Bipolar D/O, your bulrexia, your malabsorption problems, and your cancer, you've really had more than your share of problems! I don't know how you cope with so much at such a young age.

I have an autoimmune disorder that's currently trying to destroy my esophagus. My GI says a feeding tube is probably in my future. I really don't want that. How has it been for you, hell? Sounds like you can still eat a little when you want. If it's about stomach acid, why does it make a difference if the food is swallowed or put in via a tube, if you don't mind me asking. I hope I'm not being intrusive. I just am not familiar with those tubes much. I assume you have the gastric button type, or peg tube. Can you still swim with one of those? What's going to change in two years that will allow you to eat again - just letting your esophagus heal?

Do you have any advice about that, other than just 'don't throw up?' I don't have a choice. It's a gastric illness, not a psychological problem that causes issues for me.

Thanks for anything you can add.

Hey.

Its really hard to cope with, but friends and family, and especially Tommy make it a lot easier.

I have a PEG tube right now. But I can not put foods through it. The reason I can't eat foods is because my stomach can not break down the food, therefore I cannot diagest it. My throat is in really bad shape and I'm having trouble with even liquids, which is why I have the tube. Yes, you can still swim with it, I just have to be really careful, pretty much the same with taking a shower or bath. The two year difference is to let me esophagus heal, and hopefully I can restore my stomach back to normal also.

I know how you feel with the don't throw up, I have overcome my belimia but I don't make myself throw up, which a lot of people don't understand.

Really the best advice I can give you is to drink a lot of milk. When I could actually eat food, I used to order milk with all my foods. Milk helps a lot during and after eating.

I'm really curious about whats going on, so if you don't mind try keeping in touch with me. My email is; underage.love@yahoo.com

Oh, and I got a new column a while back, its tommys_baby

Thanks. :]
Good Luck with everything, I'll be praying for you.
