I am the Charlotte wife of Windy Joe. We are new to this forum. Have been reading the posts but did not know how to explain our situation. Joe had a tumor at the back of his tongue where it hindges. He opted for radiation and chemo.In June 2003 all of his teeth were removed before treatment started. He had a PEG and Infusion Port put in also. The treatments went quite well and were completed about the end of August 2003. Even though all his exams and tests are good, we are concerned with his progress. He has considerable build-up of fluid in the chin and neck area. It seems to cause him to choke if he does not move from side to side very often. The bottom jaw is not healing from the radiation and he has had two surgerys. It appears that the bone is dead. Has anyone else had these symptoms?? He has had colon cancer and prostate cancer, so it has been a long haul, but maybe we are just getting anxious. The very best to everyone. We have been reading your posts. I made this post two days ago. Did I do something wrong. We have had NO responces.???????
