hi all just looking for some information. . My Dad completed radiotherapy 6 weeks ago for a T3N0M0 laryngeal tumour . He is 78 was not fit enough for Chemo or surgery so just had the 6 weeks of radiotherapy . He has not been able to eat and drink since week 51/2 of radiotherapy . He has a RIG . We h have just come back from our first 6 week post checkup after treatment - he has been told he must remain NBM until his next assessment due to an unsafe swallow and risk of aspiration . Apparently on exam his larynx is very swollen and crusty . We have been told it’s too early to know if it’s disease progression or due to swelling from the radiotherapy but told by the gastly oncologist that Dad May never be able to eat and drink ever again and he may be just one of the unlucky people that radiotherapy will leave him this way . Wanted to know if anyone struggled to get back to drinking and even eating post treatment and if so how long . We have obviously left the consultation very disponded today with just a shrug from the oncologist . Would appreciate any info
