I took Guaifenesin 600 mg tablets, will choke a horse, all during radiation (1997) along with Salagen 3x a day. I had severe mucous problems during radiation but seemed ro recover without the severe dry mouth many patients of that era experience.
Lisa emailed me on my presciption for Dexamethosone. I had thought this was given to me to cure the rampant thrush I had, but now looking at the date of the prescription, I think not. Must have been for mucouscitis. Now I'm wonderng what they finally gave me to cure the thrush. This is the reason you guys need to keep good notes. Who knows when you will them again.
Take care,
Eileen
