I' m drinking 10 to 12 12oz glasses of water/Gatorade in a 50/50 mix. I had surgery March 8 which disconnected my small intestine from the large and
created an ileostomy. Staying hydrated is extremely important with this condition.

My primary physician suggested that the surgery plus the Vectibix infusion plus the 30# weight loss are all a strong demand on my system. He recommended Myers cocktail IV. I had this last week and the symptoms I was having were quite reduced. Not eliminated but reduced in both frequency and severity. Unfortunately this is not covered by insurance and is $90/IV out of pocket. But it did help and fortunately I can afford to do this every two weeks. Hopefully this will continue to provide help through my next 6 Vectibix treatments.
