Worse

Three weeks since the end of RT and things are bleak. Recovery is slow and painful.

The nasal-gastro tube worked well over Xmas but I finally had vomiting and coughing fits that led me to pulling it out myself early this morning. I am back pretty much full time in bed. Going back to the Marsden tomorrow to have either another nasal-gastro tube put in, or a PEG tube that is sugically inserted into the stomach through the stomach wall. Duragesic 75 morphine patches are helping with supplementing of about 5mg of additional oramorph every two hours.

This is a new all time low when I should be on the mend.
