Finished Chemoradio (30 RadioT +4 cisplatin) on June 2nd this year...spent 12 days in Ninewells Dundee afterwards due to weight loss control....times were challenging...but small steps forward were being made...PEG tube feeding kept my weight stable...slowly reduced my reliance on PEG (night feeds were disturbing sleep) ...now on solid oral intake + Ensure supplement.
Another wee step forward today was to go out for lunch, albeit only soup and a fair portion of apple pie and custard.
