Thanks Dinah and WZ for the info. I was getting all excited because although it's not a cancer treatment per se, I figured if it can help my husband drink some OJ and other citrus things (tomatoes, maybe?!) it might be worth asking the doc about. But he has not had any major dental work done, and although swallowing is still rough a lot of times (he also is on Oxycontin and Oxycodone, liquid Morphine and a cough syrup w/Hydrocodone)...he can for the most part eat a wider variety of foods nowadays. Oh but what he wouldn't do, just to be able to sip some juice again!! Also, curiously enough - even mustard burns like crazy. But it makes sense because mustard is a spice - and that's always hard on the palate after radiation treatments I hear. Anyways, glad things are going well for you! Keep up the good work, and keep us posted.
