Thanks so much. It makes a huge difference to have the support of you great people this time around. I am not sure what the dosage will be. I have not talked to anyone at all about it yet. That would be great if it could be a little less intense this time around. I am not sure what the first dosage was.

I do make sure to take a lot of water, but unless my math is wrong my PEG feedings are calibrated at 2340 calories per day. That sounds on the low side, but it was set up by the dietician. I haven't started to take anything by mouth yet. When I do that will be added in to the calorie count.
