I realize this is different for different people but...

I'd like to know how many treatments you had before the pain from radiation burn became a significant issue. Also, how long did it last after treatment was over.

BTW, I'm getting rad every day during the week.

Squamous cell carcinoma base of tongue. Lymph involvement unclear; staging placed at "2 or 3." Biopsy 4/18/2008. Treatment: IMRT every day for 7 weeks. Cisplaten once a week to sensitize cancer to radiation. Treatment ended 7/16/08. PET/CT shows no more cancer.
