Well I am going on 4 weeks now. Last Tuesday I met with my Dr. at Dana-Farber and he said I seemed to be healing well since my treatments. It was encouraging, as he seemed very positive about where I am at so soon after finishing my treatments.

I am still getting the majority of calories through my feeding tube, by pump at night. I have been able to drink Yoohoo, cocoa at room temp, was able to drink coffee at room temp--but it didn't taste good as it once did. Have been able to eat Jello as well, am considering trying some scrambled eggs tonight, hopefully I will be able to eat them.

Unfortunately, I still have very thick saliva, and over the past 4 days or so I have found it intolerable to swallow-as it makes me gag. I believe is due to the swelling in my throat and at the back of my mouth. Still have some green mucous, so I think I still haven't completely gotten over the cold I had.

I have been trying more foods, found fresh watermelon and cantaloupe burn my tongue a little, hoping to try some scrambled eggs tonight, and possibly some pancakes or french toast covered in syrup.
