I have an actual head and neck surgeon that specializes in cancer and oral stuff. I have also had days where I struggle to swallow but it usually does not last more than a day. Can be scary but keep a positive attitude about it all. There are a lot of people on here that can help too. I have to say that I have not used this sight as much as I probably should have for support but I have a pretty good attitude about it all most of the time.
