Good morning all,
I hope you are all well. I feel like I am in the later stages of recovery post-treatment for stage 3 orophangeal cancer. I had 35 rounds of radiotherapy and 7/8 cycles of chemotherapy.
I have since found out that my saliva glands and taste buds were, pretty much, destroyed in the process of treatment.
Today, I will be having my 3rd treatment of acupuncture (which I am paying for myself). Besides the acupuncture, which I am hopeful will work, can anyone make any suggestions as to how to get said taste buds and saliva glands working again?
Many many thanks for your help and input, I hope you have a terrific day.
Alcohol free drinks by choice?
Not for me. Oncologist said in moderation was ok. Neat spirits absolutely NO
I love a proper ale and still indulge

Bummer. Keep going though.
I didn’t know you could still get those.
