Welcome, @kcterry. Helpful tips for @rakga and others reading this discussion. Thank you.

May I ask what type of cancer you had? How are you doing now?

I had squamous cell carcinoma at the base of my tongue just below my epiglottis. It was finally diagnosed by a right neck dissection with lymph node removal in 2022. After 4 teeth then being removed and a feeding tube placed in my stomach I then had 33 radiation treatments and 6 chemotherapy sessions that has left me unable to swallow.
