CT Scan Results

I got the results from my CT scan back from Dr. Frech. He said that everything looked normal for all of the surgery that I had. There was nothing he could see that would explain my pain. He also asked that I contact Dr. Rasmussen’s office to see if he could see anything different and offer an explanation.

I go to see Dr. Rasmussen and he has looked at the scan. There is nothing super obvious to him either. I do have some inflammation and dilation of the intestine but it is right where the feeding tube is. He is thinking that I have an abdominal wall strain. He gives me specific exercises/stretches that are supposed to help. He wants me to do them twice daily until I see him in August and also add in some strengthening exercises. Hopefully this will help alleviate these issues!


I had also gained 10 pounds but have since lost 4 so for a grand total of 11 weeks with the feeding tube I have gained only 6 pounds. Only 14 more to go! This might take a while!!
