Hi Allan
glad to see your post,i have been wondering how it was going.Using a mouth numbing mouthwash prior to eating is very helful,as for the food,i invested in a blender.I made meals that were free from spices,salt ,onions and pepper,then blended them altogether with gravy.As Robs mouth got worse i thinned the consistency.A great backup was a pan of soup that i made with chicken carcass and vegetables and then sieved and blitzed.Failing that thin milk puddings,yoghurt,mousse and ice cream and as a final resort i bought jars of baby food.

Glad you have got so far without having to use the peg,but dont hold out once eating becomes to painful the PEGS not so bad.

Love Lizin the Uk
