Gwen,
Welcome to the forum. You really have positive experience you can add to the forum. I haven't heard from too many people that have successfully taken amifostine, and I am eager to share that with my friend Eric who is in hte middle of his radiation. It will really help him to hear that you benefited from both the amifostine and the salagen.
I hope your recovery continues to go well and THANK YOU for posting about your experience.
Jack
