Good morning, I so glad that xylimelts help 🙂 First I want to apologize to you and the Support Groups family. I want everyone to know what's going on with me and my journey. Right now I'm making to much saliva flow... it's way to thick to swallow...I have try, but I start to gag like I'm going to get sick have to spit out. 🙁
Also if any body going through this, you're not alone hang in there, you're stronger than you think 🙂

@cskippy hey Connie, I’m 9 years post treatments but I went through what you’re going through during the first year. Nothing helped including Mucinex, prescription and humidifier, it was horrible and Xylimelts made it worse.
I did many warm water (hot as I could tolerate) swish spit, swallow hack spit and repeat throughout the day.
