the doc gave JC an oncology mouthrinse - it has lidocaine, benedryl, and maalox all in a bottle - he tried it and it numbed his throat for about 20 minutes so that he could eat if he was having problems. he isnt sure if he likes it or not - i think he is afraid of not being able to feel if he has chewed the food enough and choking - has anyone tried this mouthrinse? any problems with it? (tho it doesnt help the taste, or nontaste of the food any - drat!!)
