HI EVERYONE, SORRY IT HAS BEEN SO LONG. BUT I HAVE BEEN BUSY. I HAVE SOME NEW QUESTIONS PLEASE, MY MOM ENDED HER RADIATION TREATMENTS IN THE END OF SEPT. WHEN SHE WAS DONE, SHE COULD SWALLOW WATER AND LIQUIDS MINIMALLY. NOW A MONTH AND HALF LATER, SHE CANT DO ANYTHING BUT ICE CHIPS. SHE IS DEPRESSED, FRUSTRATED AND NOT GETTING ANSWERS FROM THE DOCTORS. I TOLD HER THAT THE HEALING PROCESS PROBABLY TAKES SEVERAL MONTHS BUT SHE WANTED ME TO GET SOME INPUT FROM ALL OF YOU, DID YOU HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM? I WENT TO THE ENT WITH HER LAST MONTH AND HE SAID THAT THE RADIATION CONTINUES AFTER IT STOPS AND THAT NOW THERE IS EDEMA, SWELLING AND IT JUST NEEDS TO HEAL. ANY WORDS OF ADVICE?? THANKS JAMIE
