Thank you all.
I am in week 3 of 6 for radiation to my thyroid bed and trachea.
Sore throat just started. I take Tylenol but I am careful, not too much, and time it to be before I eat. I have cepacol and also a spray chloreseptic.
I am doing a lot for my mouth to prevent sores and issues.

Haha. I am almost at the end of week 3. Tomorrow is Friday. The reason for haha...Monday throat pain was 5 out of 10. Days later....8 put of 10. Lidocaine and Tylenol reduce pain to 5. I swallow liquid nutrition with much pain. I spit out the mucous. I need to make it through 3 more weeks plus recovery. Praying and hoping.
