Hi Tammy
I got the feeding tube along with port very soon after esophageal caner diagnosis as I could not swallow food. I was on ISOSOURCE canisters for nurshment for several months during radiation and chemo which successfully removed the cancer tumor. The radiation and chemo made me very tired all the time and I also was caughing a lot. I am
feeling much better now. Let me know if I can answer other questions.

Hi Don
Thank you for your post regarding the feeding tube. What did your chemo/radiation schedule consist of how many days of each? In addition to the fatigue and coughing were you nauseous? We’re you able to be ambulatory on some days?
