The progress as you get out from radiation is painfully slow in my experience. I had a little ulcer on the back side of my tongue for almost 4 mos. It was horribly painful!! I am not sure exactly when it went away, but around 5-6 mos out- it was gone & I felt great!!! I swear in those first months it could have taken a feather to cause another sore!! Time is your friend in the healing process! That little voice- we all know it well!! Keep it around as our instincts a great defense, but hopefully you can silence it for now as the experts have been in there to quash your worries.

Here's to healing!!
