BJMPittsburgh..
I do have a question...
for water intake.. do you also recommend that via PEG tube as well? the reason I ask is he has "burning" that burn like a ^&*
on the roof of his mouth with any intake.. even water.
I am concerned how much worse this will get and how challenging that will make water intake. He is very aware of the importance of ongoing swallowing, but with this development, I am not sure how much he will get in that way. He uses baking soda/NACL rinse regularly about 10x/day and
He absolutely hated the lidocaine. He is using orasmooth which he finds very helpful.
