Thanks, Christine. I am fortunate that both my dentist and hygienist are aware of my problems. They both have been very supportive. My teeth aren't really painful, but every time I go for a check-up there are more cavities, it's very frustrating. But I have to be glad that even though the radiation really did a number on my teeth, it, along with the chemo seems to have stopped the cancer, at least for now. This form of cancer is really the pits, isn't it? I know that I had no idea what was involved until I actually got it. My mom died of ovarian cancer but in a way, this is worse.
