Hi

My Mom for the last 7 months or so has not been able to keep food down! She had a reoccurence of Ovarian Cancer in December, went through chemo for a few months and cannot keep most food down. My Mom has been on a peg tube since January; we hope to have a resolution soon since she has been getting aspiration pnemonia.

Does anyone know what is causing this? Does anyone have any resolutions? Does anyone know of some in the Long Island, NY area that can help my mom.

Hope to here back

Tom

Oh! So sorry to read your mom is having such a difficult time! Her onc can not recommend a specialist or solution? My onc, Dr Chalas, is a partner at Long Island Gynecologic Oncologists (1 office in Nassua; 1 in Suffolk). Perhaps worth getting a referral to that practice? I am very pleased with the care I receive.
