Are your salivary glands swollen? Mine are, under tongue and inside both cheeks. My 2 doctors said this is from treatment. Im only 4 weeks out. Since i am eating by mouth, this is when they swelled. Plus the terrible dry mouth. Have a salty taste cokin from them. Is this what you have?

Tongue Cancer
1/2 tongue removed, replaced by flap from forearm. April 15, 2014
neck disection, 1 lympnode involved, doctors removed all to make sure cancer is gone.
30 rad treatments and 2 cisplatin chemo, doctor said I did not need the third
one. Finished up July 30,2014
Chemo treatment was my choice. The board felt surgery and radiation was plenty to take care of my cancer.
