Medication changes after tube placement
Currently don't have a tube but I'll be talking to my GI about one because my GP has gotten to a point I'm getting saline infusions to combat dehydration (and insurance won't cover vitamins...) and it's just not enough anymore (multiple other issues like rumination syndrome and GERD too but) we've tried just about everything for my GP and after learning about it a couple years ago it started to make sense why other medications "never worked" for anything especially pain because they were just in my stomach the entire day...
Something I'm having an issue with figuring out is that I take Metoprolol ER and my other meds I can crush or are liquid already so I'd have no issue with those but idk if I'd be able to find another version of my Metoprolol cause the non extended release I've tried and it seemed to hit me all at once (once it digested) and I almost passed out so I can't currently think of how it would be different going straight to my intestines instead of stomach
But I can't go without my metoprolol because of my pots so I'm
I can swallow just fine, usually, and it's most likely I'll still be eating some while also using the tube but a big part of it is so I can take my meds through it because otherwise it gets regurgitated and I choke or it comes up so violently it goes up my nose shxkshdkdh (prozac is now liquid form due to this)
Anyway, not super desperate for suggestions cause it'll be dealt with somehow eventually so it's alright if no one comments lol but if anyone has anything to help I'll surely listen 💗
