I am concerned that my immune system isn’t fighting flu as it should anymore. I am 71 years old. I don’t have symptoms at present, but in the last 2 years, I have experienced rigors with flu or flu-like viruses. I haven't seen a doctor about this due to long wait times for appointments.

I have Gastroparesis and have tried various motility-inducing drugs and antiemetics, but still experience persistent nausea and vomiting, despite some relief from Zofran. I have lost significant weight and believe a NJ or GJ tube is necessary. My doctor recommended this, but the ER doctor did not take me seriously. I need help understanding how to proceed and who can order the tube. Additionally, I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Chronic Constipation (diagnosed as IBS), and Fibromyalgia.
