Danny's ENT oncologist prescribed scopolamine 1.5 mg patches (yes, the ones you put behind your ear for sea sickness) They took a couple weeks for the full effect, but after that, the mucus problem lessened each day. He is now 4 weeks post treatment & we have discontinued using them. He is still using peg tube for most calories, but is eating more soft foods each day. Of course, having all his teeth removed prior to radiation does not help with the choices he has in eating real food.
We go for his first endescope in April & first scan in May. Each day I can see small improvements, which I will gladly take. It may be a slow go, but at least we are going.
Thanks for the advise & answers you shared & if you didn't know about the patches it might be something you mention to your doctor.
