David my husband is not willing to get the peg. doctors are telling him it would get very difficult in later weeks to swallow. his theory is liquids are going to go through the peg and the same can be done by mouth, by that he means ensure diet. David does the nasal tube function similar to peg tube. Like you said you could shower etc. I am not sure here in princess margaret do they give an option of nasal tube.
Nasal tube is only post Tx.?
