Need some reassurance please! John's last IMRT was July 8th, this year. For a while he was doing really well. Over the past 5 weeks, his mouth has gotten worse-really thick mucous- glued shut in the am- has to gargle, rinse, etc. all day, takes 2 bites of food and heads for the water pic, weight going down-not up. He is having ear aches and head aches[in the 13 yrs. we've been married, he has rarely had a headache.] He started on the Robitussin a few days ago to see if it would help with the "gunk", which he says feels like F26 [construction adheasive] in his mouth. Any other things to try? He's really feeling down about this. and I am really worried about the head and ear pain. Amy
