Hi Amy, Relax, your doing great! Dont panick, he is right on track too (my track too) I lost 45lbs. in 4 wks. its still hard to eat at 4wks. and yes i still had my tube too. Start him off with more water, get his throat working more, believe it or not, that will help the soreness start to go away. Then i got most of my cal. through the tube then started off eating jello and oatmeal. Thats all i ate for a couple of weeks and water. Its a slow process, and then one day...you come alive again, and start doing a little more and more. Starting wanting to try foods again (its kind of scarey to use your throat by swallowing again) He might just need a little more time, have him get on the forum and follow some of the people's progress, that might help him too. We all think, that since the rad. is done then we should feel great and normal again, it just doesnt happen that fast, they told me, for every week of rad. then it would take that many months to get where i would start to feel good and really start eating, and it was true, im in my 6th month since rad. and it has taken me this long to start gaining weight back and to really and truely feel good. I still dont have all my taste back, but it is coming slowly but surely. You talk about his mouth sores...wow, that is the most painful thing i have ever experienced in my life (and i have had 4 kids, haha) but those sores are unbelievable. That could be another reason he isnt eating alot right now. I promise he will come back, its just going to take time. I too am a M.D. Anderson patient and i know he got great care, if you want to follow my progress, i kept record after treatment under "Hello Everyone" After Treatment. Anything i can help with, let me know. I will be praying for a speedy recovery for your husband.
