Oh boy. I hope that he is still ok.
Some healthy young adults died within three months from their stomach surgery from food seed that stuck inside which caused inflammation. Many doctors usually don't talk about it. I think that we have to be aware of what food is "safe" that we eat. I really don't know why. I wonder which seeds that cause it.
My grandon is doing well, thanks. He's a year old and has had the stomach tube since he was just about a month old. He spent his first 41 days of life in the NICU because he had so many health problems. But now they've found the right diagnosis, so they are finally treating the problem and he's improving all the time.
We still don't know what the specialists decided from the swallow study. We hope his parents can start to wean him from being tube fed to eating by mouth.
That's strange about the seeds causing death. I wonder if it is only in patients who have recently had stomach surgery?
