@zenren14 They have me on Glucerna 1.5 three times aday.. My throat seems to be fine except for some water backwash back to my soft palate and out my nose. Upper mouth and gums become blistered now and then. This is after radiation 4 1/2 years ago..Rediculous. The soft palate is a bit shorter now after surgery so that's the only problem I have for swallowing normally. Plus the build-up of mucus above the palate 24/7 that continually has to be hacked out so I can spit it out. I hope that clears up soon. And of course no saliva.
