My hubby has completd his 35 RT and 5 chemos. Beginning to get his energy back and throat and mounth are no longer sore. He is swallowing and has begun eatting. Taste buds are still not his friend, as nothing tastes good to him right now. He still has his PEG and is thinking about getting rid of it at the end of this month, or sooner. We are scheduled to see the ENT doctor on May 23rd and we hope he will order a PET. Anxiously awaiting to find out if all of the cancer has been destroyed. Energy level is not the best and hubby is not happy about his loss of saliva and loss of taste. Hoping they will get better.
