Wanted you to know that I am now 2 weeks since finishing treatments and pain/ swallowing issues are largely resolved. Gabapentin and hydrocodone/Tylenol were absolutely necessary that last 2 weeks. Pain grew and grew then all of a sudden largely subsided. Be wary of constipation from the drugs. I waited too long to start the Miralax but once started all resolved (I am little familiar with constipation til now).
My best to all.

@4dogsrental you are doing so well and that makes me very happy. Again, taking the time to post your experience will help many more people here on this H&N cancer journey. Keep up the great work and may your future scans all be clear!
