It is now six weeks since I finished radiotherapay and am hoping someone else with a similar experience will chat with me.

I had a lymph node recurrence in Sept 2013 which was treated by a right side radical neck dissection followed by 6 rounds of chemo and 33 rads. I finished treatment 23/12 and am recovering well. I am just about on a full diet but some foods are harder than others due to lack of saliva (thanks radiation). I lost 34kgs during treatment and would have been more if I didn't have a PEG tube. Send me a message if you want to chat.
