Hello

I wanted to write to tell everyone about this medication that completly cleared up my fathers mucus. It did the impossible. He has no recurrent neck cancer as the radiation and chemo did not kill the cancer. He recently went to get a trach put in and they did an biopsy while they were in there and it came back positive. He is now home on hospice and after all this we told hospice about his flem and they gave us Transderm Scop patches. They are for sea sickness . We had to use two at a time for it to work. We put one patch behind each ear and it really worked. Nothing has worked all this time . His flem is so bad he could hardly lay down flat for his radiation treatments and had to cut some short. He cant take any cat scans because of it as well. All this time he could have had this and maybe been able to eat better as all food came out of his nose. He now has a feeding tube in and a trach and still has cancer and some how this patch made all the flem dissapear and I mean really dissapear and in a day. He had bad neasua from the feeding tube and it also made that go away so now he can get up and move around. I really cant say enough about these patches. Please if you have bad mucus or even if you have neausea please have your doctor try these. His flem was so bad you could actually grab it and pull. Not to be gross but to give you an example of how bad it was to how gone it is now. I hope this can help even one person. My father wanted everyone to know about it. Had we had it earlier it would have been easier on him and we might have been able to get better readings on his scans. Just as a side note, he also has bad swelling of his cheeks lips and tongue from his lymphatic system not draining right. They put him on Steriods and the swelling went down in 2 days. He has to stay on them but it does help.

Nicole,thank you so much to you and your father for sharing this information, as this mucous and phlegm problem seems to be such a hurdle for most people undergoing treatment.  I am sorry for your father's suffering - you sound like you are very supportive and I am sure he appreciates your being there for him.  Prayers are with you.

Thank you Nicole for sharing.  I am seeing my Dr. on Monday and definately asking for this to try.  I am 17 months out of treatment and like you Dad, you can almost pull this stuff out.  It is horrible.  I hope the doctor will know something about this for the phlegm!

You are strong and so supportive and all would be so proud to have a great daughter like you! 

Gog Bless to you, your Dad and family!

  Lots of Love & Warm Hugs!

Hello Nicole!

This my 3rd day on the Patch and has taken all that crud out.  It worked great. 

Little dry throat I assume from the patch.  I am going to try to wear it once a week and see how it goes.

Thank you so much for this info.  Your the Greatest!  Prayers to you and your Dad!!!

 Hugs

Patricia
