Congradulations on completing your treatment Darrell!!! When you start eating only you can answer. Each one of us reacts differentely to the same treatment. Your ENT should be able to give you some direction. If you can swallow by all means start eating some soft foods, I started with a big bowl of homemade chicken soup. It was really good plus soup goes down easy. The more you eat the better off you will be. No better exercise for the throat mucles than using them. Beware of a getting down when you end treatment. It happens to many of us. What Now???? I'm on my own!!! Thankfully you can vent and ask questions here that will help you.

Your Friend, Dan
