I am so trying to get in enough calories, but my damn throat hurts like crazy. So far today I have lost everything I put in my PEG tube due to this swollen uvula issue and it gagging me. Now my throat hurts even more than it did this morning. I now can not talk and lost my voice to. How can it all go down hill in just one day? I have lost 60 since diagnosis. About 20 has been since rads/chemo has started. The bad thing is, I just don't care right now.
