I would like more information on why a tube is inserted {PEG}
When I had my neck surgery to remove tumor SCC from my parotid gland and the 6 weeks of radiation, I did not have any tube. I only ate soft items with lots of water { soups, maltomeal, shakes and nothing solid that I had to chew up. I used a mixture of "magic mouth wash" that I took a little before meal time and it numbed the esophagus into taking the food down. After one week post radiation, I ate my first hamburger in months. Little hard but I loved it.
