Hi everybody,

My mom finished her last radiation session on Friday so now its time for her to start on the long road to recovery. She is not going to be very patient with this. I told her that for every week of radiation it takes at least a month to get back to somewhat normal and she really didn't like that at all....but she doesn't complain. The only thing that is really bugging her is the mucusy saliva that she is constantly choking on. It is making her sick so that she ends up throwing up. Shes barely getting her Boost Plus down at this point so the throwing up is not helping her. Is there really nothing she can do but wait for it to go away. Any suggestions would be helpful. People have mentioned a steroid? If so what is it called? Or do you just recommend that she wait it out?

Thank you,
Danielle
