I guess it just isn't comforting when I hear people are a year out, 3 years out, 6 months out and still feel this way. It's not encouraging. I only have until the beginning of next month to go back to work and I still can't talk without being in pain or being uncomfortable. I can talk fine when the thick excessive saliva is out of my mouth but that only lasts about 2 minutes if i'm lucky. And it's even more frustrating that no one else seems to have expirenced this problem. It's days like these I wish I had made a different choice. The "but you're living" card isn't enough. I'm alive but every minute of everyday is a fight. I don't want this. They might as well have taken my tongue for all the good its doing me now.
Its completely unfair.
