My tongue feels as if it has swollen but it doesn't. It feels like a baloon in there . As for dry mouth , I still have it after aover 2 years. It didn't really get dry until I had the radiation seed implants put in my tongue for those few days. That and phlem seem to be good friends.

Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
