Hi Cheryl, the vomiting is caused by a combination of oesophageal and stomach dysmotility from the neuro disease and by the stomach surgery I had which went wrong. Unfortunately the saliva I swallow doesn't always pass through my stomach and I quite often vomit it up every half hour or so. There's no pattern to it or any triggers so I can't predict when it's going to happen. I just have to prepared all the time.
My dietitian just did her routine house call, she said it's time I made an Advanced Health Directive in case I have a sudden collapse.....I must be looking a bit off today
She noticed the container of lollies (they are really for my mother and Aunt, but I have some too) on my kitchen bench and was quite pleased to see me eating rubbish. How things have changed.
Anyway, it's lovely and cool and overcast and drizzly rain so I might have an afternoon nap. The dog and both cats are all inside curled up in their baskets....very sensible.
