Danny........Just a thought. How about trying some foods that are not milk based, or do not have any milk at all. I know when my mouth was full of mucous the last thing I wanted was anything creamy or milky. During RAD I ate a lot of cold watermellon, minus seeds of course, and a lot of canalope. It was full of water and slid right down plus the cold felt good in my mouth. I also ate a lot of poached fish with butter. Try the scramble eggs without the addition of milk. Just trying to remember what I ate at the very beginning. Glad the swallow test went well. Continued success with your eating. Slowly but surely you'll get it back, I promise! Keep us posted. Sincerely, Donna
