Jordan,Sounds just like my situation. I am only about a month or so ahead of you. I had the mucous problems for about two months after treatment but it eventually it got better, it is not totally better and I have more problems now with dry mouth. Some of the things that I used were rinsing with salt water and using crest alcohol free mouth wash and them some hard lemon candy like "lemonheads". Hang in there Jordan you will see some improvements, I always had to be reminded to look at my recovery in terms of months and not weeks.
