Hi out there - my name is Liz

I had a neck dissection on Jan 31 followed by 35 treatments of rad.

Right now I am on a feeding tube which comes out this thursday - I can't wait - only problem is that I am having problems swallowing as well.

In order for me to swallow anything I have to fill up my mouth with water - which makes everything taste worse - if thats possible (can't taste to much as it is)

I have lost 25 pds already and have no energy - if it was up to me I would stay in bed all day. Very depressing huh - I am not giving up though - Is anyone out there tired all the time? How long before all the mucus in the mouth goes away. My last rad session was on Arpil 11.
