Hi I’m recently diagnosed with stage 3 tonsil cancer with Mets to lymph node. I’ve had 2 of 6 Cispan treatments and 11 of 35 daily radiation treats. A couple days ago I started the lidocaine mouthwash/ rinse and am not having much luck with the mouth/throat pain. I’m not sure if it’s a technique thing like swishing and or gargling or kind of soaking when using the rinse or if there are more… EXPAND ▼ effective things, any ideas, suggestions or expectations of more things to come that’s the hardest part for me is knowing what to expect so I can prepare myself. So I’m not in a constant state of wondering what’s coming next? Any thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated thank you. COLLAPSE ▲
