Welcome Jack!

I'm a few months ahead of you and I will say the saliva is getting better as well as the taste buds. Before alot tasted like plastic to me but now things are starting to taste normal again. I get dry mouth first thing in the morning, when I'm real active, talking too much and a weird one...when I'm using my peg feeding but it is all getting better. Just give it some more time and be patient.....a hard concept for me!LOL
