Week 3 predictions are correct a(shakes)

Hi Paul

I was given Ensure 2 Cal, did the job for a while, eventually caused vomiting.....ended up being tube fed (via pump) with Jevity.

Thanks Peter I’ve got 9 days left so hopefully I can make it that far without a feeding tube

You should. 
Skandishakes are good. You make them up with full fat milk. 
Ensures and Fortisips from your team are 2Calories per ml. 
Smoothies. You can blitz this easy one up. Banana avocado ice cream honey peanut butter. Has all the food groups you need 

Thanks Peter wife got me some this is food 500 cal in a bottle.  I e mailed my  oncologist nurse person and asked he’s she’s sent a message to my gp for them to put some on prescription 

Hi Paul there’s a good chance you won’t need a feeding tube I had mine fitted end of week 3 but i had another 4 weeks to go through. Just keep getting the calories in. Ensures scan shakes high protein smoothies.

I used Complans for a long time, a lot of the "medicinal" ones were too thick for me to swallow. Obviously can just be bought over the counter but I had them on prescription, the only difference being they came in a less pretty box.
