Visited orthodontist this morning to pick up my protective gum shield which will stop me constantly biting my poorly tongue when I'm asleep.
This afternoon had X-rays to try and work out my swallowing problem. It turns out my epiglotis isn't functioning properly and I have now had to go to nil by mouth. This is mainly to make sure I don't pick up a chest infection by too much liquid going down my wind pipe. This may be the price I have to pay for getting rid of the cancer. Hope not but the speech therapist will send a report to the ent doctor and we will meet him to discuss options.
Glad you made it back to the Front Room from Cornwall ok and that the hospital staff are beginning to get to the bottom of the swallowing problem. Praying for better news soon x
