This is really uncommon in anyone that has a clean scan. I can't remember in 8 years here, hearing about it from anyone that didn't have some metastasis of the disease to the cervical spine or brain. Please don't let that sentence freak you out, as they can happen for tons of reasons not related to a spread of the cancer.

I will be very interested to hear what the doctors have to say about this, we just don't see this often as a side effect of oral cancers that are confined to region areas, or from any of the normal treatment protocols.
