Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 2,676 | I am so glad to read these posts. John is still having severe mucous problems almost a year past
his 1st surgery and radiation.The "gunk" in his mouth is a constant battle. We keep thinking it would go away, and while I am sorry anyone else has to deal with it, it is comforting to know he is not the only one dealing with this. Sometimes it just drips out of his mouth. We are trying all of the suggestions we read on the forum. Amy
