I'm sorry you're so worried. My tongue was a mess at two months out from radiation. Still is sometimes. The tissue is so sensitive in there and it seems really likely that you just irritated or injured it somehow.
Tracy - 33 at diagnosis SCC right ventral tongue Dx 4/11. T1N2M0 1st resection 5/11. Bilateral neck dissection: 2 pos nodes 2nd resection w/graft 6/11. Erbitux x 11 completed 9/11. IMRT x 30 completed 8/11. 3 month MRI and PET/CT all clear. 6, 9, 12 and 24 month post treatment MRIs all clear. |
