Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 4,912 Likes: 53 | Several people mentioned to me that Bob was responded to via email. But herein lies the problem...People with new ideas need to start new threads. With all that I have going on, I am not very diligent about closing threads to prevent further postings when the idea is done. Invariably some new person comes to the site that is unfamiliar with how message boards work, and their important question gets put at the end of, (and eventually in the middle of) someone else

I find that the carbonation helps to clear my throat and also helps with swallowing which has not been the same since treatment.

I will take the heat for getting this off track. I am not used to this type of forum at all, so I don't know the "rules".
I asked about the alcohol because someone metioned it. How do I get those to respond when it pertains to that subject, such as the question alcohol. How do I get those who were talking about it to respond to me if I go into new response area - how will they know where to find me? I started a new subect matter with "treatment questions but haven't gotten much response")
Please send me in the right direction.
Thanks, Kathy | | |
