My husband had 2/3rds of his stomach removed a month ago and the consultant was happy that he progressed very well while he was in hospital . He has an appointment next week for results and check over so I imagine we will find out more then .
However, despite him having a good appetite and fancying all kinds of food , he can obviously only eat so much and fills up rapidly , the same applies to fluids so he's quite limited and has lost massive amount of weight which doesn't increase much. This concerns hi greatly as his skin hangs in folds, he was a well built fit looking man up until a few weeks before his diagnosis/ operation . Will he manage to put a little weight on does anyone know? His bones protrude and don't have much skin cover so can feel uncomfortable sitting sometimes . Pressure areas good as I bought a pressure cushion for him , but he does look very thin . He's on fortisips and forti juice in addition to 5-6 small meals a day plus snacks. Anyone able to give me any info on what to expect and how he can progress please?
