I find it interesting that you speak of the saliva problem just as I have recently encountered this problem. It will be 17 years since diagnosis for me in April and the saliva spewing has just started with me within the past couple of months. I no longer have need for any follow up care and wasn't sure exactly what medical specialty I should now see regarding this issue. I have had limited issues with lack of saliva over time but mostly while in bed sleeping at night or any time I am under stress for some reason. I would also like to hear from anyone else who has experienced this after being out of treatment for so many years. Thanks.
Dx 4/27/06, SCC, BOT, Stage III/IV, Tx 5/25/06 through 7/12/06 - 33 IMRT and 4 chemo, radical right side neck dissection 9/20/06.
