Since we're on the topic of the PEG, I have a question.
I've not started radiation as yet, but my chemo mouth makes impossible to eat solid food. It only lasts a few days, but it makes me appreciate what will happen when I go into radiation. Presently only chocolate takes good, and since I've gone through this 3 times, Carnation Instanst and Ensure are getting quite boring. I'm hungry but (1) I don't feel satisfied on a liquid diet and (2) everything doesn't take quite the same, (3) I never feel full.

I'm look for more foods/and food tricks people have used to eat orally during radiation. I don't want to use the PEG for everything. How do you get your nutrition. Potatoes are most carbo. Pumpkin pie and sweet potatoes have a lot of sugar. How does everyone get their protein other than a protein mix?
Any food ideas??????

Thank you
Sandy
