Hi Mark,
Have you asked your doc about Diflucan? This will cover any yeast infection in the mouth. Often the Keflex can cause an overgrowth of yeast. It's worth asking at least.
Yes, HPV+ would be better.
Kevin lost a total of 56 pounds throughout tx. After his BOT surgery it only took a few days to get to the point where he could eat again. He lost maybe 23 pounds during induction chemo and the rest toward the end of radiation and the weeks after.
When you know exactly what you are dealing with let us know. We're here for you!!
