I have 11 treatments then whatever "boosts" I will get. I did not want the PEG either. Last weekend when I could not get water down w/o my mouth feeling like it was on fire made me change my mind. Best of luck to you JimB. One day we will be able to pass on our experiences as David and others have to us.
Thank you everyone,
Kenny
