Thank you ladies. Together we do feel stronger!

Such sensation had been mentioned to my husband's docs every time when we visit them. However, no one can give us a certain answer except "time could heal and hang in there". The radiologist says his neck skin is still "soft" and acknowledged my husband has a bit lymphedema on his cheek area, but he says that is very minor and stating those lymph liquid usually starts under chin area. So to him it is not a big problem and just suggest us to PT & massage. But again, no firm help on the strangled sensation.

We googled 'choking sensation' and actually see it might be the combination effect of lymphedema, scar tissue and fiborosis. I am asking for help from the community if anyone else who actually have gone thru this and give my husband some guideline what to expect next few months. He always thinks this is going to be life time.

Thanks Christine's estimated timeline for recovery. I think it will be helpful for my confused and frustrated husband.

And thanks Tammy for sharing your experience with your husband! Those are encouraging!

Keep them coming!!
