When was the last time these drs scoped you? Is it possible there are any stitches back there still? These drs need to get a handle on this gag problem. You have to be able to keep fluids down. The more water you can drink, the faster the bad stuff from the rads passes through your body. Read Gail's suggestions in previous post and get these drs to resolve this gag problem. If you are too sick to argue with them, get Seth to do it.
I feel so badly for you. Hope you are feeling better today.
Take care,
Eileen
