Dear all,

My partner finished treatment for stage 4 tonsil cancer (no neck dissection just radio and chemo) Nov 14 2008. He then made quite a rapid recovery and didnt seems to suffer as much pain as others have reported. However since Christmas he seems to be suffering nagging discomfort in his neck and the back of his head in the evenings. Did any of you have radio side effects that came on quite late? He also says he gets a nagging bruised sort of feeling around the tonsil area that got the highest dose on and off. Do any of you experience anything like that.

Thanks, I have been working away from home for a while and when I got home to hear he was suffering little niggles it worried me somewhat although I am sure it could just be the usual radio effects thing.

Thanks
Cathy
