Welcome to OCF, STC. Please give us more details about what you have been thru and make a signature when you can. It will help us to get to know you so we can assist you better. I have sent you a message with all the info you need to add the signature.

Your tongue could have scar tissue depending on what you have had done. Recovery weather from surgery or radiation (or both) can be a long frustrating road full of ups and downs. Being 45 days out you still have a long way to go before you will be completely healed. Hang in there, hopefully the worst is behind you.
