Desiree,
I am one of the big proponents of PEG tubes. I still have mine 8 months after treatment, although most people get rid of them a lot sooner. But I would not rush to get one. I waited until 2 or 3 weeks after treatment began when swallowing began to become a problem. Putting it in is an easy and quick procedure.
I am still hoping that your results are negative.
