Petey,

I'm glad you are finally getting the treatment and services you need. Hope all goes well for you, you'll be in my thoughts. Amiofostine injections are suppose to help with the dry mouth situation after radiation is completed. It's a shot they give you before each radiation treatment, it has to be injected in fatty tissue. Does cause vomiting with some, in fact my sister could only tolerate it for 3 weeks, then quit taking the injections. Your radiologist can prescribe medication to be taken before you arrive for treatment to deal with the nausea.

Good luck to you and take it a day at a time.

Nancy
