Nerve damage effecting tongue, muscle, swallowing.

Good afternoon…. Since you were treated 10 years back I just want to ask if you are now cancer free despite the nerve damage now and how long did your dry mouth lasted. I just finished my chemo and radiation treatment in October but I still have sore throat plus blisters that occur sometimes on the palate of my mouth. And I am experiencing something like swollen neck and face.

@linda90 Good morning, Yes I'm cancer free... sorry to hear what your dealing with 🙁 at first I had really bad dry mouth I drank a lot of water. now I'm producing to much saliva now. My side effect we're nerve damage, which is now effecting my speech, nerves in tongue and the muscle in swallowing. I'm in speech therapy and on a feeding tube for now. working hard to get some normal back in my life. Take it slow, do your research and if you don't get your questions answer that makes sense to you keep knocking on different doors.
Stay strong you got this girl 🙂
Best
