Hello and thank you for all your advise. I am currently going to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta.The surgeon that performed my initial surgery is in the same medical practice of my reconstruction surgeon, They have an excellent Otolaryngology center that specializises in cancer. I still have my peg tube and I try to relate to them that I need my teeth to really eat again. I'm 52 and weigh 105 lbs at 5,8. Its really hard to put on weight when all you can drink is ensure.I.m trying to be patient but its really hard.
Thank You Sherry
