Hi Cheryl.....Yes I have tried physio, but after some time the staff working on me told me that what I had origonally was lymph and that would be soft to the touch. In the end I was told that what they could feel was hard......so no longer lymph but Fibrosis and nothing can be done for it !! I find it hard to believe that anyone could live with this horrible pain .I cannot take many meds anyway, I always react to them , but SURELY there must be something that can give some relief. I live in Sarnia Canada and my son is in Toronto. I`m serious when I say I cannot carry on living this way !! Constant pain is for the birds, and no quality of life. I had my surgery in March 08 and finished radiation in July 08, and the pain has just gotten worse. I`ve always done the neck and mouth stretching. The only time I am lucky is when I`m sleeping. I am due for another throat dilation very shortly.
Thanks for replying, it is a comfort. I thought I was the only one in Canada Ah Joanie 33
