Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I am just passing 16 months since surgery and I still have thick mucous. I have an idea it's from rad seed implants in my tongue this past Feb 29th. Hang in there brother. This all takes the time it needs and you will be fine. Good luck to you and yours. One thing I have learned is to have a handerkerchef in front of your mouth when you cough.
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
