Hi Noodlehouser, I'm so sorry you are having such a hard time. It sounds like you need to consider having a nasal gastric tube if you do not want a PEG. Is your medical team fully aware of how little you are able to take? You will get back to being the fit and healthy gal you were, so you need to stay strong to get through the next 2or 3 weeks which will be the worst. Sally
