Thanks Cheryld. I already had my glosectomy done during June 2010 which is now more than 2 years ago. Thereafter i had recurrence with nodal involvement and another surgery had to be done during June 2011 requiring RND. After that when i requested my doctors to also address the issue of tethered tongue effecting my speech and eating, they just asked me to wait and referred me to Speech Therapy. My doctors said that at that juncture they were only concerned about addressing the cancer and other issues were secondary! Also they had said that they wanted adequate healing time for the scarring, and an all clear scan after a year before they can address it. Now that it is more than a year and my scans have come clean, i have started pestering them to address this and they are examining releasing the tongue, dental implants and improving the ROM of the mouth.
Essentially,in my case it is more to set right the glossectomay done in 2010 and releasing the tongue which is attached to the floor of the mouth!
