Today was the date for my 2 monthly clinic session at Addenbrookes Hospital as part of the follow-up following my stroke last September.
Again it was good news: I can reduce the liquid feed through my stomach peg by 200ml every 2 weeks, meaning I could be totally free of liquid peg feed in about 2 months' time. This assumes I maintain my weight. I am already eating soft foods via my mouth and these will increase again.
I still have to take some water via the peg (my liquid intake is too low) but to be free of peg feeds will be a real milestone on my road to recovery.
Recovery from my stroke is taking a long time, but I am recovering, thankfully. Many don't do as well.
