I'm sorry for the long period of silence. A bit of an update.
Two months post treatment, the fluid in the right middle ear finally drained. Being able to hear again is very nice. I thought for sure I would not hear out of that ear again.
Slowly, my taste buds and salivary glands are beginning to work again. I struggle most with tasting salt and sugar, but each day, it does get better. For whatever reason, I can taste beer much more than solid foods. I should start a liquid diet. Yes? I'm also able to carry on a conversation without my mouth going completely dry.
Six months post treatment, my radiation oncologist ordered the PET CT scan. Today, we got the results. There is a hot spot on my right neck that he wants to have a closer look. He ordered an ultrasound or CT guided biopsy. I feel great; this can only be a false positive.

Glad to hear you are getting better. Hope the hot spot does turn out to be nothing.
