You are doing well! I am still drinking the fluids as well - I finished my radiation on 12/17 and have drank all the way through but haven't been able to eat as of yet. I saw my Dr. on Monday and I still have a spot on my tongue that hasn't healed - it rests against my tooth and either is rubbing or just hasn't healed. THAT is why I can't eat yet...that is the part that hurts! On the pain meds I couldn't pinpoint the sore spot! I am off the pain patch! YES! Doing about 6-8 hours between the Hydroco so doing well but getting danged tired of Ensure. Did add chocolate milk. Juice burns sometimes...baby food burns - at least the fruit does! I have eaten a few peach slices...but even that is a stretch. :o( Getting tired of sweet liquid stuff. :o(
