William 1949,

How much did you weigh at the beginning of treatment? I am 244, so my Rad Dr. said she will watch and wait to see if I need the tube or not depending if I can eat or swallow and depending on how much weight I lose. Believe me, If I start to have any problems eating, or lose too much weight, I WILL have the tube.
