@ranchroad Please ask your med group about oral lidocaine gel or rinse. Using this just prior to eating made a world of difference for me while healing. Those of us who did not use a stomach tube for radiation must just grin and bear it to get the calories in. I like your half and half solution. I made smoothies of half and half, ricotta cheese, and a raw egg to get calories in. It is a battle but it gets better. Have patience and be strong.
