Hi,
I am getting conflicting doctor opinions on the feeding tube. I will begin treatment in a couple weeks for radiation only on my right side of the neck and tonsil area for 15 to 20 minutes. The Radiation Oncologist really doesn't think I will need the feeding tube. He said 2 of his patients are having a lot of problems with theirs, and my left throat will not be affected with radiation. I am thin, but always have been thin, 5'6" normally weighing 120 Ibs., now weigh 113 after surgery and lack of exercise.
Have you been ok without the feeding tube?
Thank you for your input.
