Hello, I just got back from the pharmacy. The doctor gave him the fentanyl patches. He is sleeping so I will wait to have him try one until he wakes up. I will check with the insurance tomorrow to see if any of the "eating" supplies are covered. He meets with a nutritionist every week at the radiation office, she is the one that gave him the Ensure. She didn't mention keeping track of everything he eats/drinks, but I think that is a great idea.
Again, thanks for all of the suggestions!!
