Sore Throat and Radiation
Looking for advice: I started Rads 3 weeks ago and from day 2- I started noticing a sore throat. It started out as just a tender spot to now it hurts to swallow. On Monday the dr did a scope to see if I had any blisters- they saw nothing.
I have tried the Magic Mouth wash and Carafate, Nothing is fazing it even taking 800mg advil.
They are wanting to send me to a ENT - so while I am waiting on that anyone have similar or suggestions to try in the meantime.
