Hi there,

So glad your husband got the peg. I had one during my treatment as well. I was slim when I started treatment and it really kept me from getting into the danger zone with my weight even after I had finished rads and chemo.

What I did to avoid all the swallowing stuff was force myself to drink something everyday even when it was really painful to do it. I just kept my water bottle handy and took sips throughout the day.

Now I can swallow just fine and have had the peg tube out for several months.

Just let him know there is a light at the end of the tunnel and he will get through!

Cindy
