Hi folks I have been away a while. My treatments ended in June 2009.
I have done quite well, so I would like to offer a word that this can come out well. I still have limited motion in opening my mouth. No double deckers any more. Saliva is low, but there. I cannot eat without a drink to go with it. As far as taste, sweets are still not there. I rock candy, all I could taste was the food coloring. I discovered recently that stevia actually tastes like it is sweet. I use it a lot now in tea.

The thing that is happening now is that I have started getting cramps in my neck muscles. My doctor thinks it is not a concern. I guess it is scar tissue as it is just on the side where I had radiation.
