Hi Al, Salagen helped me for a few months but seemed to lose its effect over time. I stopped taking it and noticed no changes. Perhaps I regained enough saliva through healing. I too have lost taste and smell, though they do seem to be slowly creeping back. I am two+ years out of treatment and every day I get a tiny amount more back. Be sure you eat whether you can taste or not. Its suprisingly easy to ignore food when you can't taste!! Congrats on completing treatment - another battle with the beast goes to the good guys! Be strong. Tom
