Thank you for the suggestion, it's welcomed, but hubby has now had his j-tube removed because of the intolerance to formula...now he is taking TPN (IV nutrition) and his nausea and vomiting have subsided quite a bit because it is administer through the bloodstream rather than the GI tract. After he spent almost an entire month hospitalized, he has also gained some weight (about 14-lbs). Nevertheless, he now has to begin eating real food and if that causes nausea to resume, we will ask about that patch. However, while he was hospitalized, they tried a patch one day but it caused mental confusion. (I don't know if it was scopolamine but whatever it was, side effects included confusion, just as scopolamine does.)
