Warded in TTSH: Day 16

Things are looking up. The pain is still there but I am learning to cope with it with certain posture and stretching and aid of pain killer. The occasional sharp pain still appears when I try to laugh or burb or sit in a certain hunched position for too long.

2^nd day of solid food and they stayed down which is a good news. I was thus taken off the TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition) where the nutrient is directly infused into the blood stream. I still can't take real solid food as yet and I am on soft and moist diet (i.e. porridge). The duodenum stenting was definitely a success.

I will be having the bile duct stenting done tomorrow at 11:00am with the concurrent removal of the bile drainage tube. Pray for successful procedure, reduced pain and speedy recovery.
