Good Evening,
I was wondering if anyone has any insight as to what may be causing my dad to have issues. He has a PEG tube and gets Kate Farms 1.0 formula every 2 hours, no real issues since he had the PEG which is around 6 months now. Around a month ago, after getting out of the hospital for some Pneumonia, my dad began to develop very watery stool. I first thought it was from the antibiotics given for pneumonia, once the treatment was over we still had the issue. So after trying probiotics, Metamucil and asking the doctors; everyone is out of ideas. Best advice they have given is to wait it out...
His stools are runny, not even semi solid or anything in between, every other day it will actually be somewhat formed; very small.
Im leaning towards the formula that we feed him, which may not be enough for him to form stool?
Thanks in Advance,
Francisco & Co
