Hi Digtexas-

I think you should go easy on yourself-radiation therapy takes an enormous toll on people and the incidence of fatigue associated with treatment is high. Sounds like your body is "reeling and healing" and maybe just needs time to rest.Most of the folks Dave and I have talked to in the course of deciding his treatment plan have said they really didn't feel like themselves again for 6 months post-radiation and that it was a slow process.

Tube feeding, although functional for nutrition doesn't exactly add pleasure to your senses or feel like a gourmet treat especially when the counterbalance is a laxative cocktail.Dave and I talked to a guy this week who got so bored post-op he started putting chocolate shakes (real ones from the ice cream stre) in his tube and other forms of chocolate. Now, I am in no way advising alternative options to get excited and possibly clog your tube!

Are you sleeping okay?

Give us some more info about what your days have been like.

Hang in there,

Kim
