Hi Dover this is Hazel I am 10 month post radiotherapy for tonsil cancer 35 radiotherapy sessions and 2 chemotherapy.i have a blog detailing my experiences 

www.radioactiveraz.wordpress.com

with it being a blog the recent posts are the first so scroll down to bottom. 

So you have a humidifier for bedroom ? Amazon appx £25  plus a nebuliser hospital should loan you one of those. Are u using saline mouth washes ? To gargle with.

the journey and treatment is hard but if me a 62 year old female can do it anyone can.

there is also a post on here called radiotherapy for throat cancer by Anchor 1707 where lots if us comment .

do you have a peg ? I didn’t but around week 3 I had a nasal feeding tube which kept me going for 6 weeks. Are you on painkillers like my oncologist said clue is in the name if u need them take them don’t try and be brave it doesn’t work  at one point my cocktail was 6 ibuprofen 8 30 mg co codomol and up to 40 mil of oramorph and I know others who had far more  we didn’t become addict s as we all took it for real pain just had to wean off itbwhen time came.

any questions ask away

Hazel
