Likewise I am very thankful I have a PEG. I can imagine not having it and know I would have lost a lot of weigh and been very sick.

My ENT always encouraged me to keep swallowing a few serving of pudding, jello, whatever everyday day. At times I found even that little bit to be hard.

After week four, my MO seem to be happy that I was still swallowing most of my fluids (juice and water).
