Hi April   I'm so impressed by your gourageous approach to treatment and maintaining nutrition, I've scoured your messages for tips and a bit of inspiration. One thing you mentioned that I haven't seen else where is use of a nebuliser - would you mind sharing what you used through it... Butamol or another product? Hoping you've continued to heal okay since your last post...   Regards Shane ... View more

Hi Captain Thank you for the week-by-week account of your treatment and post-treatment period.  I'm facing that rough road very soon and I'm the sort that likes to have a plan, so being able to plan for the escalation of pain, goo and burns has given me a strange sort of comfort, but a lot of trepidation.   Cheers Shane ...

Hey Hector Thank God I found your post!! :-) After reading all of the other dire accounts of phlegm and pain and PEGs it was a relief to find someone who got through a brutal but tolerable treatment in a slightly more manageable way.  Oh, I'm by no means thinking you've had it easy, but your account does give me a bit more positivity. I'm just diagnosed T2N2c with primary at base of tongue and am in for the multi-disciplinary team review on Friday, I guess treatment starts soon after that - I'm praying my reaction to it is more like yours than some of the other poor souls'. Thank you for sharing Cheers Shane ... View more
