@rhema, reading your bio in your profile, I see that you are no stranger to life-long digestive issues due to GI conditions, exacerbated by radiation treatment for cancer.

For this reason, I added your post to the Ostomy & J-pouch support group as well as the Cancer: Managing Symptoms support group. I'm also tagging a few fellow members who I believe have experience with radiation enteritis and/or total parenteral nutrition (TPN) to share their experiences.
