Brian,
As usual, thanks for your support. I am still using the PEG about 3 times a day. My Rad. Onc. thinks that I should try to get off of it soon, but it seems that I am unable to eat very much volume so I still keep using it and then try to supplement it with food. I really don't know if I should skip more tube feedings and try to eat more at this point. I did talk to a dietician at MDACC but she was not that specific about how to do it. I seem to drink more Boost Plus and Ensure Plus rather than eat a lot. Any suggestions?
( I won't feel really back to life until I can get rid of the PEG and have the freedom to travel and eat in restaurants).
