Dying Slowly, treatment for Gastroparesis- (nurse
Donation protected
I was diagnosed with palliation with
idiopathic gastroparesis in end 2014/2015 with is a condition where the stomach nerves are paralysed and it’s
incurable. It has also given me diabetes as I can not metabolise my food.
i have two pulmonary embolisms, two deep vein thrombosis, clots from a summer femoral central line and now no iv access following a port in my chest for iv fluids and iv medication. I am having 24 hour a day 7 days a week NJ tube feeding since May 2018 but can only tolerate 240 calories a day in 24 hours. Despite four years under a specialist gastro hospital in London they have discharged me saying I am too complex and they can do no more for me. I’ve also had Crohns and proctitis since I was 17 years old but from 1984 worked full time as a dual trained nurse until my illness. I am mainly bedbound now requiring frequent hospital admissions 10 in 2018.
I have tried all available British medication treatments over 4 years with no luck and the condition is deteriorating with 4 stone lost in five months causing malnutrition.
Ive been given hope that treatment in India can help me but using an Ayurvedic hospital with medication and daily Ayurvedic massages to stimulate the nerves and get some motility back to the stomach and bowel.
This is a treatment which may the quality of my life. I’m living on morphine and diazepam and up to 35 medications a day via my NJ tube plus two injections a day of Clexane an anti clotting injection now for life.
I would like a chance of trying this alternative natural treatment that has been used in India for thousands of years and is a specialist treatment especially in Kerala, South India.
The money would cover the hospital treatment of minimum of the recommended three weeks and therapy and as a female i need a chaperone in order to stay.
Even one pound or one euro would help my fund raising cause and Thank you for reading and giving.
Best wishes, Jacqui
