Hi I'm still getting these awful water blisters. They come every single day and usually around meal times. They are excruciatingly painful days I am left in tears with the pain. They are not easing up. I told my consultant and he says it all to do with the saliva. I put on gelclare when they appear. They can last from one hour to a few hours. My lord the pain is awful at times and I end up only eating little ify meals as it's too sore. I'm told they could be there for at least a year. I'm 14 weeks post RT. Anyone else get these x

  • I used to get them post surgery right up until CRT.  They were small and apparently from blocked saliva glands.  Annoying, but not really painful in the way you describe.  I've not has any since CRT.
