Hi
Was diagnosed with stage3 toncil/mouth cancer on 25th april 19.
After all the scans n biopsy, treatment came with 270 hours of intense chemo and 30 sessions of radio.
Fitted with a feeding rig.
I must admit it was brutal.
The after effects/side effects are horrendous not being able to eat, swallow is difficult n thick gluey mucous
And damaged saliva glands/constant dry mouth
Anyone on here had similar. be good to chat to like minded people.

Good luck
