Thank you so much for your reply. CONGRATS on being cancer free!! My husband completed treatment 3 weeks ago. Every day is different for him. The sloughing of the throat has been horrific. He coughs and gags, spitting up a lot of ugly stuff. That part is improving each day. Did you experience any of that? How long did you have the feeding tube once treatment was completed?
Thank you for your input!

Yes, I had the ugly coughing up phlegm. I had the jtube for several months while I could not swallow and had no appetite. They removed the jtube as soon as the treatment was done and I could swallow again. Let us know how the next scan goes?
