Hi Capt i have what you had in respect to racid taste and cannot eat....had it weeks...using the tube you recommended that has saved my life...thank you once again...but....one more question...did you find anything at all you could put in your mouth to take out the 24/7 rancid taste ? i have been sick to my stomach day and night due to the taste in my mouth and trouble sleeping as well due to it ....i have NO TASTE but rancid taste....it feels like small droplets leaching from my tongue that start real sweet then turn to battery acid and rotting flesh..... if only there was something i could put in my mouth that is dry as the Sahara and all slimed up and stringy as well as pure foam....when i put plain water in my mouth it really wakes up the sores from the radiation....i assume the taste is from the chemo cisplatin. my tongue is white slippery slime covered, cant brush the tongue it hurts for a day if i try....my teeth must be crying for mercy....but i can brush the teeth. having trouble sleeping as well as being awake not being able to get away from the tase and slime.... tried to chew gum....forgetaboutit...almost threw up...anything that goes in my mouth causes the gag reflex...even water if i am not very careful....something with taste of course gives me a rancid taste and the gag reflex starts...and hurts as well... got 3 more weeks of chemoradiation left tonsil and 4 lymphs....then the real pain begins for awhile i guess from reading....then some let up....i sure hope i return to normal somewhat because this wont make it......i am not looking forward to each new day right now except knowing in 3 weeks no more treatments......24/7 nausea (take a nausea pill once and awhile if really bad...cant live on them) and the mouth of course.... all i have been doing is some water drinking by mouth to try to keep troat muscles going and using the tube for everything including water etc.... thanks BIll
