I am so worried this week to see my daughter so unwell.
The Nasal gastric tube is not intended to be a long term solution
It can cause problems in her body. She is looking as white as a sheet and her delusional thinking is becoming ingrained in her daily routine. I backed off this year from pushing the mental health team to provide direction as it was making me unwell trying to force a response of care from them it was exhausting dealing with the lack of care. Never a response never a plan. The highest public mental health support available in our catchment. I stopped dealing with them and coordinated with the hospital instead.
Now she has been home from hospital around five or six weeks she is taking a medication she had to google herself, they have increased it a couple of times but there is no plan. I have written an email to the manager this week politely requesting a plan for the tube, their additional diagnosis thrown in has been anorexia but they have done nothing to treat that, I have had to argue every hospital admission that she doesn’t have anorexia, no referral to eating disorder specialist nothing . I have questioned this , psychological tests were done and no evidence of results, it was three days today still no response
