Your diary has been a welcome read for us. My BF is on Day 24 of 33 day radiation regimen, with concurrent Cisplatin once a week for six weeks (one more to go) for oropharyngeal cancer in throat, tonsil. It had been progressively getting more challenging but the last few days it seems to have gone strait off the rails as far as mouth pain. Where before he could tolerate broths, thin soups, Boost high calorie, now everything burns, and swallowing virtually anything is like knives in his throat. He has the Magic Mouthwash which helps a bit. Was there anything that you found that helped with the miserable mouth pains?
Thank you for your inspiration too- we know it’s temporary - just hard to handle on hour to hour basis when getting next to nothing down.
