My husband had a stem cell transplant Dec 17, 2014. He had bone marrow failure at day 90. The cancer (cmml) is gone and now he has aplastic anemia. They did a second transplant may 20 2015. After a 12 day stay in hospital after the transplant due to gastro infection he has been home. Fever and symptom free. We are at day 101 but he still is unable to swallow solid food. He has maintained his weight with smoothies with protein, powder, avocado, fruit and ensure as well as juice and ensure in between. However when he tries to swallow solid food he gags and then ends up vomiting it up. He said he feels as if he is going to choke when he tries to swallow. He didn't experience mouth or throat sores so that isn't the problem and he is able to swallow his meds. Anyone have any experience with this? Causes? Suggestions?
