I know you are glad the surgery is finally over and I'm sure your doctors will not start the rad until you are healed enough.
Eat Eat Eat as much as you can as soon as you can. If you have the Peg already I'm sure you will keep it during and post rad but swallow as often as you can to keep those muscles in "shape".
