George,

You will be entering a stage where getting enough calories into your body on a daily basis will become challenging due to swallowing problems, nausea, malaise, etc. A lot of us used a product called Carnation Instant Breakfast VHC which packs 560 cals in a small 8 oz can. I'm not sure if it's available in Canada but I assume you can order over the web. Check it out. It was a lifesaver to me, even months after Tx stopped.
