@tracey8 Wow, you really have been through the mill!
I have had a similar experience, except I still have all my teeth and somehow avoided most of the pain.
As soon as I could after I got out of hospital and was mobile enough, I got an appointment with my acupuncturist and homeopath. The two together have me back on my feet with saliva more than half way back to normal.
I have just passed the two year mark after radiation and feeling I have more energy. However, I still drink two tetra packs of Ensure to supplement my diet. My mouth is finally healing up so I can eat more normally.
There is a life after all of the above. Keep on keeping on!

Thank you so much

Did you have Chemo? Also is your mouth super sensitive to spice,salt,sugar?
Also do get sores in your mouth? My Oncologist said its due to Radiation.
