    XyliMelts are Amazing

    Mrs. BD and I were at a Head & Neck Cancer reception at our Cancer Center and we received a sample of XyliMelts for dry mouth.  For me they worked amazing.  You moisten one side of the mint and stick it to your gum and it dissolves over twelve hours.  It was great not to wake up with a dry mouth (and a lot less bathroom trips)!  I have not found them at local Walgreens or CVS, they do have them on Amazon.  

    We have tried the Xylimelts

    but unfortunately they didn't do much for my husband. So far we have yet to find a good solution for the xerostomia but we'll keep plugging away!

    I had ringing in my ears...

    from the cancer....and it's never changed since....so I imagine the Cisplatin kept the tune going.  I had my hearing tested after treatment, and even with the ringing, I had no hearing loss.

    Ringing

    I had my first Chemo Tuesday.  Wednesday I woke up to ringing ears.  Today it seems to have subsided.
