My concern is about your feeding tube being infected. Is the site red and inflamed? Try cleaning it real good with soap and water, rise it off and pat it dry then apply some antibiotic cream like bacitracin ointment and top it with a drain sponge. Do this at least once a day to ensure it is kept sure clean. Change the drain sponge if there is any blood or leaking formula on it. Did the doc put you on antibiotics? An infection at the peg site can lead to big problems if its not taken care of.

Some patients will drink boost or other over the counter nutritional supplement drinks instead of using a feeding tube. Since you just finished treatments it may be quite a major undertaking to drink 2500 calories and 48 oz of water daily. Try to use the peg tube or get the gastro doc to replace it. If you can not take in 2500 calories and 48 oz of water daily then you need something to help you. Maybe the peg tube could be replaced with a nasal tube for a couple weeks until you are able to do better with your swallowing.

Best wishes with everything!!!
