My Husband Stephen has asked me to post these questions:
Swelling inside my mouth & around my jaw is as bad or worst then 3 months ago( the end date of my treatment)
My mouth is still soar and sensitive.
does the pain subside once the swelling/scaring has done its course?

Looking for any sign of hope for some sort of normal, or any suggestion which would help. I am diligently doing my neck and mouth stretches twice a day as well as yoga once a day.

Look forward to hearing from anyone about this because the physicians in Canada either don't know or aren't saying, thanks Stephen
