Today I ingested 926 calories, 69 grams of protein, and 16 ounces of water.
I am having dreams about food now. Just some weeks ago I would have waves of nausea if I saw food on a commercial. I still have a couple of months to go before I will be able to eat soft foods but I'm dreaming of foods that I can't have.
The hospital called me today to set up an appointment for a Swallow Test to see if some of the sips of water I take are going into my lungs. Not every time but most times I choke when I drink a sip of water. So I'm afraid to drink and just use the PEG tube for all water intake. However, I will have problems with throat muscles and memory of how to swallow if I don't keep it up every day. My appointment is for September 21st at 10:15am.
