Its so unfortunate to hear how many hurdles you have had with this. Hope you are feeling better and better each day. Hope you are doing jaw opening exercises to improve your trismus. Here is a link for easy to eat foods that require very limited chewing. I also have trismus and Im without teeth and can handle most of these foods. Hope this helps. http://oralcancersupport.org/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=94621#Post94621 ChristineSCC 6/15/07 L chk & by L molar both Stag I, age44 2x cispltn-35 IMRT end 9/27/07 -65 lbs in 2 mo, no caregvr Clear PET 1/08 4/4/08 recur L chk Stag I surg 4/16/08 clr marg 215 HBO dives 3/09 teeth out, trismus 7/2/09 recur, Stg IV 8/24/09 trach, ND, mandiblctmy 3wks medicly inducd coma 2 mo xtended hospital stay, ICU & burn unit PICC line IV antibx 8 mo 10/4/10, 2/14/11 reconst surg OC 3x in 3 years very happy to be alive | | |
