However this has ruin my entire life? every month,after month, after month for the same problem, small bowl obstruction and the corse of treatment for me is to have a large tube installed and push up into your nasal cavaty and keep pushing until is curves around down into your throught to your stomach to pump out excess gastric bile,etc.?
