I am just now 15 mos out of treatments. I have been learning to eat again for over a year now. I started out with broths, soups, canned peaches, etc. Gradually I have worked my way up to eating a regular meal. However, I have to take very small bites of meat with a few bites of moist vegetables at the same time in order for the meat to go down though. I still don't have much saliva, and I don't know if it will improve anymore than this so the things I still cannot eat are breads. For now hamburgers and hotdogs are out. I cannot eat pizza either. I really miss those things and I miss being able to be spontaneous about my eating. I still drink Ensure Plus to supplement my diet when I don't feel I've gotten enough throughout the day. Learning to eat again is a long process and is easier for some than it is for others...depending on their recovery process and any side effects of the treatments. Hang in there and keep trying new things. I've tried things that didn't work then tried them again a few months later and was able to eat them.
