Coughing Following Tongue Surgery

Hi. I didn't have TORS surgery on my tongue as mine was not at base. I had a left partial glossectomy with a left radial forearm free flap on April 3, 2024. Ironically. same day as you. Have the same issue with the phlegm and hacking but mentioned it to my ENT stated should go away in a couple weeks. In addition, I had the nose feeding tube which is probably not helping either but hopefully will get that out on my April 16th appt. Plus, had selective neck dissection.

Hi 🙂 You did well. The treatment protocal is hidious. But what's done is done. Many challanges
lay ahead. Never give up. You will slay your dragons. So far, I'm still kicking at 81. Social Security
paid for my gym membership and that has saved my but. Try it. Once you see results, You are
HOOKED
Best Regards,
Michael

I hope you are doing better. I am finally able to get some liquids down, so hopefully I can avoid dehydration. Two weeks sounds like an eternity, but we both have one week behind us. Blessings to you!
