Short bowel syndrome - causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, pathology

What is short bowel syndrome?

That duodenum looks too long. Wasnt it suppost to be just C shape with 4 parts (20 to 25 cm)? Also isnt jejunum more located on the right or upper right? While ileum is more on the left? Hence the location for ileostomy?

Hi

[@patriciashelton6644]

My grandson is facing this. He has gained weight , he is low in vitamin B12 from loose stools. He eats several small meals a day, drink small amount of liquid with food. Waits an hour and starts drinking more fluids, adding Pedialyte to his diet. He takes Imodium for diahrea. He has an ileostomy for over a year now. Surgeon says he can have it reversed, they fixed it during surgery for future reconnection to the large intestine. It worries me that what if the small intestine he has left fails. TPN everyday would be something to have to get use to. An I heard some people can still eat food, but their nutrition has to come from intravenous feeding. Which carries a huge risk of sepsis from the port. I pray things get better if he's reconnected. Maybe there's enough bowel to reconnect that will help. He had a perverated bowel from a blockage. He's only 26, so young.
