Well Welcome to the club! Yes, radiation certainly is havoc to your eating. We all have different experiences, I lost my taste for many months, but it did come back. I still don't like hot food. But mu taste came back! Fir saliva, all I remember was the first time I could spit, I was elated. I doid get most of my saliva back. I still us biotene and gum. I am "fair" in that department. Trismuis is a toughie! I can only get maybe two fingers wide, tough at the dentist!!. A therapist rx'ed me a OraStretch, it woirks but It is a continual problem.

Hope this helps~
