I have very little complaints at 6 wks post 30x IMRT. One thing that is happening is usually after i eat i get small water blisters popping up all over. roof of mouth, by throat, under bottom of lip, etc. they don't hurt unless near throat. they then often just go away. Any thoughts?

I had blisters on the sides of my tongue that took months to heal. It sounds like maybe you are having a reaction to whatever food you are eating.

I've had the same little blisters, Warren. Mostly on the roof of my mouth. They seem to be decreasing the further out I get from radiation.
