I've had this ever since radiation (13 mos ago).  It was annoying but I just chucked it off to some nerve thing.  Happens every time I eat, only on the tumor side....not profuse, but enough that I am wiping it constantly while eating.  I think in all this time I have gotten used to it.  Strange for it to just show up now for you.  Let me know if you decide to take something for it.
   DX 12/6/10 of T3 SCC Tongue.
 Surgery 1/3/11 was hemigloss & forearm free flap, midline mandibulectomy, Neck Disection-All nodes clear.
 Ended rads 5/11/11. Taste buds back to about 80%.  PEG removed 4/5/12, experimenting eating real food again.  If I can do this, so can you !!  Stay Strong.
