Hi all,

I am almost 90 days out of Chemo/Rad. I am back to work and eating human food with the occational bottle of ensure. Today I had a wopper combo meal for lunch. It taste almost normal but I still can't taste the sweets stuff. By the end of my meals my throat gets a little sore. The pain lasts 20 mins then I am OK. Life is returning to normal but it is NOT a staight line.

I do have a couple of question/issue that I have not seen discussed on this sight yet. The muscles in my neck are sore. All of them. I have my wire rub them and it hurts a little. It also hurts a little when I turn my head and the muscle strech. Is not awful, but it is a nagging, odd felling. Has anyone noticed this?

I also think my thyriod is harder and may be larger. I really can't tell for sure. My ENT did not say anything. It could just be my skinny neck. However are there any thyroid issues that I might run into?

It also hurts to open my mouth wide. I seem to have a hard knot or a ball of muscle in my cheek on both sides that hurt when I open wide. I rub and strech it daily but it is annoying. Does this go away?

Pet scan 2/20 fingers crossed.
