absence of bowel sounds - TPN - radiation


Posted by donsdaughtermel

My dad has nhl - came back about one month after chemo.  He is now on TPN because the node/mass is strangling the small bowel.  He had a few days of diarrhea now nothing.  No sounds, nothing.  He's on radiation - 10 of 22 treatments.  Is this normal?  He hasn't really had anything by mouth since starting the tpn.
