(Manuka honey was a good tip.) I think we went through treatment around the same time. My recovery was very slow. How was recovery for you? My life has (almost) returned to normal. Energy is back but my mouth is still quite compromised (lack of saliva, difficulty opening, swallowing). But I am grateful to be on the other side of things. So good to hear from you. -Michelle
