Checking in, and with good news!
Greetings all. I've been away for a while, but check in to update almost everyday.
I'm now 3 1/2 months out of treatment. 1st scope check came back all clear on Dec 10th. Yesterday I had my 1st PET scan and it also came back all clear. I'm as happy as I can be.
Also had that darn feeding tube removed yesterday, after being in since 9-27. (total weight loss was 55 pounds). What a difference. I'm eating very well and have gained 10 pounds since Christmas. Still not much in the saliva department but I can't complain, at all.
You all have my best wishes.
George

Wet Willy....
Congrats....
Hang in there, saliva will return to some degree..., most is nearly 90 - 100% given time... It took nearly two years for both my saliva and taste to return pretty much 100%....
I'd imagine with your taste starting to return, saliva will be close behind.
