I know. I was wondering if others have this increased mucus problem this long after my initial treatment(s) ended in Jan. 2008. I always had some mucus, but now it's really increased -also, the sweet taste is sickening and upsets my stomach. I'm seeing a new ENT doctor this week because the other one just says it's a natural reaction from radiation and offers no solutions. Also, I'm trying to get an appointment with an Oral Medicine specialist who deals with oral mucositis. One just has to keep searching and searching on their own to try to get help. Thanks for replying.
