Today is my first day without radiotherapy, it feels such s relief not to be getting ready to trip of to the hospital although I do feel a bit lost without all those people around.
The main thing that's changed is the increased mucous/ thick saliva that's being produced. There's a lot in my mouth, but I also seem to be coughing up very thick phlegm. I rinsing with salt water and alternating that with capholsol. I have a pint glass with me all the time as my spitting pot and a giant heap of toilet roll where I keep spitting into tissues.
I was awake much more often with this than I have been since the second week. I'd say about every 60-90 minutes. There's a lot of coughing too which sometimes has flecks of blood in, which has been suggested could be to do with the Damagae that's occured to the lining of the throat.
The forum is such a great tool for running your symptoms by ther people for some extra advice. Done some work from home snd emailed it in for a meeting this morning and some housework. Time for a nap. Now.
