Well the fentanyl is fading and the small hidden pains are coming back. The hands and back have already noticed. I am a little concerned about the withdrawal symptoms and already have a slight headache. I hope they end there. 🙂

Liquid
The radiation has caused the liquid injury issue causing a juggling neck.
Day
The day was productive. I had two appointments , one at 9:30a and the other at 1:30p. I dropped Susan off at work and then drove to the first appointment. It went OK. The nasal scope was not working so I did not have that performed. I was told I am on track. We discussed the withdrawal possibility since I am on. Y last fentanyl patch. What I can do for the impacted ears and that I should start drinking the ensure to help get off the feed tube.
The afternoon went OK also. My white count has increased and none of my numbers have ever been at a critical stage.
After each appointment I stopped at the store and walked with a cart. It went OK although I could tell the heat outside was taking a toll when out there.
I did also get clarification on the radiation and sun. It s not the entire body that is of concern, but the area that was radiated and when I’m going to be out in the sun for extended periods. It is not needed to go to the car and buildings. She said sunscreen would be fine for the extended periods, but I will continue full coverage when working outside.
Yogurt
Eating yogurt again today and it is even dryer than yesterday. 🙁 Wonder if I’ll be washung everything down for now on.
Not the best solution, but it will get the feed tube removed.
Guess I need to make a process in the event thus is part of the new life style.
Food
I ate 6oz yogurt and 10oz of peaches in apple juice. Neither was easy, but I did get them down. Used lots of water to aid in washing it down.
Today is 2 months post treatment.
