Hi Hazel and Ian thanks for your support and taking the time to reply. Had a few days break away before starting treatment tomorrow (chemo + RT).

I've had a read through your great blogs and have a great idea of what to expect now. Its hard to explain, but somehow talking to you both who've been in this position and drawing from your experiences and recommendations makes me feel that I'm not alone in all this. 

My job is quite mentally demanding and office computer based with lots of distractions too 

Im recovering nicely from the surgery with speech now ok and swallowing much easier as well. Had a few visits to the dentist ready for the treatment and have been prescribed a high fluoride toothpaste to use. I've got hold of those soft tooth brushes and have invested in a waterfloss unit also which I gotta say, first impressions I'm very impressed with. 

I'm waiting to see what else I get prescribed before going out and buying the other recommnded items and meds you both have used to help. Oh yeah and not forgetting to start drinking plenty of water.

I guess we're all different and recoveries will differ and like you both say its time to let your body dictate the pace.

Being positive now but also know how tough the following couple of months may be.

Hazel amazing energy and recovery truly not bad for a young one!...

Thanks both
