You're doing great this soon after tx's!!..It will take a while, I finished tx 11-4-2008 and I still have some trauma in my mouth. My RO said, "A good year before the trauma is gone and it could take up to 2 plus years to heal from tx, so, be patient".
Just a couple of weeks ago I was able to add pepper to my meal and this week I was able to eat some spicy food!!
You're doing awesome!
Btw, sounds a little soon for any scans and such?...So, I wouldn't get to worked up about that...
