Thanks John - how are you doing now? My husband also has a peg, thank goodness, so to get things in perspective, he is also able to maintain nutrition and hydration and ensure meds are able to be taken. Just so I know what to expect, how long did it take for you to be able to drink again after the treatment?

Sorry to have hijacked your post slightly skp, hopefully your husband won't get worse but if he does there is much information here.
