Since he has recovered from his tonsilllectomy (HPV+) he has gained weight and is eating very well. I have concerns about him losing weight during treatment. He loses quick.I found this protein and high calorie supplement at the health food store (Fusion 7) with about 10 oz milk per two scoops it provides 46 gms protein, nutrients and 600 cal. This has really helped put on weight.
He will be getting Cisplatin and Taxotare IV on a one whole day basis and then three weeks later the same thing. Each round of chemo is an 8 hour IV. Dr. thinks he should be able to work through the first two rounds.
