Hello Everyone,
I am new here, I am a 34 year old female from Massachusetts, who has just went through 8 weeks of radiation and 7 weeks of chemo, for tonsil cancer.
It has been 3 weeks since my last treatment, and my mouth still aches, I keep taking this magic mouthwash to numb my mouth. I have thick saliva and sometimes I hack up thick saliva with blood in it and what appears to be little pieces of flesh. It scares me. I want this to be over with and want to go back to eating at Wendy' and Having Pizza but I know that will be awhile still. Though I did have a few bits of a meatball last night and let me tell you that tasted so good. I am happy that I have my taste back.
How long have people here had to deal with thick saliva and a feeding tube. Also do you take Saligan and is it something we will be on forever?
