Tongue throat cancer

Hello, I've just finished 6 weeks of Radiotheraphy and chemo and I'm feeling dreadful!  Today I have done nothing but vomit, and I have so much mucus and spit I feel like I'm drowning, especially at night! It always happens two days after my week of treatment. Any advice?

    Hi

    I finished my radiotherapy and chemo for the same type of cancer 1 month ago.  For the first 2 weeks  after fnishing my treatment I felt dreadful I had the same issue with mucus and vomiting, also was very fatigued and depressed.  My advice is to just try and stay positive and know that you will start to feel  better. I am very pleased to say that the issue I was having with all the mucus has now almost gone away, I no longer am vomiting without warning and my energy levels appear to have improved. Stay strong..... it will pass.  Best wishes to you
