Help, Anyone have one or several what are called sudo obstructions do to Neurogenic small bowel?

I am currently in the hospital again at Hopkins and have a great team ( this is very important as I was rushed to a hospital that did not know me or my problems. This is the fourth or fifth time this has happened and the first C-T at the other hospital did not show an obvious obstruction (scar tissue) My doctor now thinks it may need a revision, then TPN (I.V. Nutrition) for a short time compared to last time I had what is call neurogenic small bowel and needed to be on TPN for a year and had multiple episodes of sepsis which almost killed me. If there is anyone out there with this problem or even had them, please respond to me asap. as I go for yet more test today and will know what will happe?

Thanks for any insight

Hey Marylandgal, sorry you didn't get any replies.  I think your situation might be somewhat special and there are other sites with folks very familiar with your needs.  One that comes to mind is sci.rutgers.edu.  Give it a shot and I think you'll get lots of help.

Respectfully,

Mike

Hi MarylandGal,

I just saw your post and wanted to respond.  I hope that all of your tests go well and the docs are able to help you right away.  Sadly, I don't know anything about neurogenic small bowel except what is posted on google.  Take care and I hope everything resolves very quickly for you.  LH
