Hoping the stent goes well. I’m just being honest not negative, I had the stent put in and it was supposed to go in before treatment but didn’t happen until I was a couple of weeks into chemo/ radiation and it actually was the worst I felt during my entire treatment before surgery. It had to be removed and a j tube had to be placed for feeding. As I stated hoping not an issue for your Dad and much needed relief I’m sure. If I had to do it again I would have gone with the feeding tube. Your In my prayers and hoping for a speedy and swift healing for your Dad and much needed relief for you as well!
