I a beginning my 5th week of radiation for oral cancer. Has anyone had ink excessive salt taste in your mouth from the treatment? Does anybody have any solutions for this? I have a feeding tube and have been using it for 3 weeks now due to the excessive salt taste in my mouth. I am now unable to drink because of the severe salt taste.
Can anyone help? If you had this side effect did it go away after your treatments? We think because I quite sweating approximately 20 years ago that the radiation is activitating a gland causing this terrible side effect. I have 3 more weeks of radiation to go. I am 50 years old and just want some advise,.
Thanks
