Like I wrote in another thread, the bipap has to be set low enough to be comfortable. Otherwise, the mask has to be too tight, and it blows air into my stomach. VA Long Beach just doesn't get it yet.
I would be gone by now without the PEG. It takes about 15 minutes to load 8 oz of Boost+ and 150 ml of water chaser from the bag every couple of hours. This is my computer time. If strong enough to take the PEG insert, there is no excuse to lose weight. I take 2000-2400 calories every day, and have gained back 8 pounds of my 66 pounds loss prior the PEG.
