QOL

Sorry you are having all these problems from a dental surgery 4 weeks ago. Sounds like there is a problem somewhere . Seems like this should have healed by now. Since you have started your RAD & Chemo Treatments I would hate to see the side effects set in on top of all this. You really need to keep your food intake up. If you continue to go to long without eating maybe you should consider the feeding tube.

Make sure you have some good pain meds. available. If what you have is not strong enough ask Medical Oncologist for stronger.

You might have to seek another opinion from different Oral surgeon.

I hope you get well soon. This sounds very painful.
