Hi
I am Hazel and am 10 month post radiotherapy for tonsil cancer h p v 16 + with several affected lymph nodes. Treatment was 35=sessions of radiotherapy and 2 Cistplatin chemotherapy.
I am now 62 year old female who is a wimp but I found positive mental attitude was the way to go for me I was going to kick cancers butt. I did got the all clear =14 January this year .Now on check ups for next 5 years.
My main issue is lack of saliva which I know is a common theme ,but omg until you experiences it I had no idea how much work our saliva did . I use xymelts at night which are a awesome..
I am a non smoker and non drinker haven’t had a drink really in years don’t like the headaches nothing against a drink just can’t cope with head.
Food wise meat Ian still very difficult and bread but toast is fine.
Look forward to many discussions on here
Onward and upwards
Hazel
