Have posted in some of the different forums but just wanted to ask a question. Kevin was doing so well a couple of weeks out of tx. By Thanksgiving he could eat the meal with the family and could even taste quite a bit. But the longer we go the more his throat seems to hurt. It hurts on the left side. He is back to basically eggs, Ensure and oatmeal. He's going back to work in Alaska on January 3rd and I think is getting a little frustrated with the pain. We really feel like we have gone backwards. Thoughts? Latest scope was 2 weeks ago and everything looked great. This Tuesday he has a high contrast CT.
Thanks,
Kathy
