I had a partial glosectomy on November 11th with a forearm flap reconstruction. I had about 40% of my tongue removed. About how long before I have acheived the best I am going to be regarding my speech and eating. Some story's I read the people seem to have no long lasting effects. My speech is horrible and I can't eat very well at all.I know its only been a month but I guess I would like to have an idea of the length of time it will take to relearn this stuff
