You would be better advised to think in terms of a 2 year recovery. Heck my biggest saliva/taste improvement came at 14 months PT and a tad more at 24 months.

James,

Sounds like you are doing well with your recovery, albeit some of the same challenges and annoyances we all face. Wishing you all the best with your PET results.
