Jenna:

Im glad your treatments are over. Next couple weeks will be rough. If you can eat, do it and drink lots or at least put lots of water in the PEG. Get lots of fluids and your calories in. At 3 weeks post treatment is when I ended up in the hospital for dehydration. I let the nasuea get the best of me and more came out than went in. Try to take your anti-nasuea meds on schedule before the nasuea sets in. Robotussin will help cut the mucous. Hang in ther it will be better soon.
