Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I have had rad, Erbitux , radiation seed im[lants in my tongue and yes, I still feel like my tongue and everything left in my mouth atre swollen. Maybe that comes from having parts of my tongue removed 4 times ot maybe it's from my teeth being removed.My teeth were removed before rads ,chemo or implants. I would say the sweeling isn't imagination
