My sister just started tpn. why does she feel full?

Good question.: I think the bigger question is why is she on TPN? That likely is related to why she feels full. I suggest you discuss this with her, and if she is willing to allow you to talk with the doctor who is giving her TPN, then discuss the situation with them. She may not want you to know everything, and that is her choice. If so please respect that.
