We reached out to our neurology/multidisciplinary team at Mayo from the ER last week. Unfortunately, we live out of state, and were at our local hospital. We had mentioned gut issues during visits with the neurology team in the past, and they had advised us to use osmotic laxative daily, which he does. He is able to drink liquids (with straw and sometimes chin drop). Local Dr. did mention that side effects of other meds may be a contributing factor to the ileus, so will be investigating that as well. For now, he is home and doing much better, and ready to go back to work!!! Thank you for mentoring this feed.
