Thankyou @rosemarya ,
My husband is at home. His Dr's are unable to guarantee his problems will resolve. They tell him it will be 6 - 7 months before/IF he is likely to get anywhere near where he was prior to his complications. I have made an appointment today for him to see an Holistic GP with an interest in GI issues as fear given his ongoing loose stools and distended colon I suspect he may have malabsorption problems as he is having problems gaining weight. He remains rather anorexic althòugh that is improving slowly.
I shall check out the other groups.
Many thanks for your response and suggestions. X

martha7979,

I am truly sorry to hear your husband is having these issues even now. I think you are making the right choice, but ask if there are any herbs you can add to his food that might help his digestive system. Those do take a long time to show results, but, after my visit to a Naturopath and his telling me about some things to add to my life for my heart problems I certainly improved, but it did take quite a while. I still do wish my cardiologist had suggested I add at least CoQ10. I take 4 supplement specifically for my heart and this may be the direction needed to help your husband.
