I've been having constant painful ear aches everyday and night for the past two weeks and I know it's probably from the cancer but has anyone ever experienced this? If so was there anything that made them better? I don't like taking my pain meds if I don't have to and I've been taking Tylenol but that doesn't help so I've been taking pain pills when the pain is at a 10. Also, I'm having my partial glossectomy in a few days and was wondering when you had surgery, did they go away or is this more serious than I think? I've been researching and can't find out why we get them so I don't know if it should be a big concern and call my dr.
Thanks guys smile
