Laser Treatment - Neck

I was treated for laryngeal cancer 4 yrs. ago with a combination of radiation and chemo. I am doing fine except I have broken capilliaries all over my neck as a result of the radiation. I was told that this was atypical. I am very self-conscious. I had a few laser treatments (which were very painful), but the results were minimal. I live in NYC. Let me know if you had a similar experience (broken capillaries) and if you had laser treatment. Thank you.

Hey,

Im happy to hear everything is well with you treatment, I have a very dear aunt that had your same treatment 1 year ago , Now she has some spots appearing in her face and the doctor advise her she had skin cancer due to the radiology being so close to the face..... this was just announce to me 1 wk ago and having a very hard time dealing with it ....but anyway my question is do you use anything special to keep your saliva going ...she lives in South America and is asking me if there is anything they sell here special she can take for the saliva.  Her throat gets very dry and chewing gum helps her a little.  Do you have any suggestiong on what I can buy her to help her feel better?

Hope to hear from you soon .......

God Bless you !
