My Dr has told me to try and eat (I have the "tube"),but unless it's room temp water any food makes the back of my tongue sting and burn terrible. I'm a bit over 2 months from radiation, but should my tongue be healed up enough to eat? I know everyone is different, but is there anyone out that had the same problem?
