Welcome to OCF, DeeDee! Im sorry to read about what you have already been thru. Im sure you will find our group helpful with info and support as you face whatever your future holds. As a group of fellow oral cancer (OC) patients/survivors and caregivers we all speak from our own experiences so its not always possible to find someone who has been thru the exact same situation. Plus everybody's different and will respond to medications, procedures, etc in their own unique way.
You will find tons of info reading thru posts here on OCFs public forum and also on the main OCF site. The link is below but also can be easily accessed from clicking on the OCF Website link at the bottom right of any page.
Main OCF SiteBest wishes with your continued recovery. I do have a suggestion for you to ask your doc if you could add high protein whey powder to your diet to help increase your protein intake. Protein helps to speed healing. Maybe it would help you so check with your doc.
