Thanks I will talk to the doc to see what's best for him, the patch sounds like it might be the best thing. I noticed alot of people talking about issues swallowing but have not seen any information on what can be used to help. My father is having a hard time swallowing anything. Someone mentioned magic mouthwash I went on internet and there's several different concoctions that the pharmacist will make (by prescription that is) but I also found a company called CutisPharma,INC that sells a kit called First-Mouthwash BLM. Has anyone heard of it or used it? I called the company and they sell it at various drug stores (by prescription only).
