I'm 5 weeks into an 8 week cisplatin/radiation program for squamacell in my neck, and just starting to use the PEG. I've tried everything to keep from getting reflux, which, when mixed with my SAE 140 weight siliva, just gags me. What's the trick to keeping this stuff in your stomach? I'm trying unflavored Jevity 1.5, and a pump, but I'm not sure it'll work any better than just doing it slow by hand. My stomach must be the size of a tea bag! Lately, I've been getting all my calories from beer, and I don't have any reflux from that.
It's especially bad at night, it seems like I'm not digesting this stuff. Do I have to sleep setting up?
