Yeah, only 10 more smile

I use Nasonex prescription nasal apray. I also have a few others Ive been given. They all work and are not addicting (at least not to me). I was also given prescription sinutab to help with the sinuses.

I used a physical therapist for trismus (restricted mouth opening). When I started I was 2 sticks and moved up to max 6 which hurt like heck. You do not want those problems, so stretch like crazy smile

Try tiny sips of water. Sorry but I didnt use a speech therapist for swallowing, but did see one for pronounciation a couple times.
