The TPA is starting to hurt a little bit, on the centre of my tongue. I have been using the saltwater washes still, and eat Rinstead pastilles when I am at work, but it is still a bit sore. Perhaps it is because I have to use my tongue so much when I am eating. Food is still getting tangled in it, but I have learned not to stress about it so much.

Otherwise, I have got so used to the whole assembly that I'm starting to forget it is there. I can't wait for it to do its stuff - but the first goal I am really looking forward to is getting shot of the TPA!
