Delia,

I was throwing up, on and off, for months after treatment--I think a lot of it was due to thick phlegm that got stuck in my throat, in combination with a stomach that just never felt too solid, thanks to the prescription pain meds I was taking, as well as queasiness which I think can be just caused by the tube feeding. Once I got off the pain meds, the vomiting pretty much let up, although it had slowly improved before then as well.

Hang in there and have hope. It does get better. Charlie is lucky to have you as his loving caretaker during this.

Nelie
