Good for you, Jim! - sounds like you are staying on top of things. Make sure and keep records so you know how much you take in every day (keeping a record of the outgo is good, too) wink . I know it has got to be pretty awful inside the mouth. My son would not let me even see inside - he even had trouble opening his mouth. I'm sure I would have fainted if I had looked inside. I'm so glad you are a fighter!
