I have a patch of muscle under my left jaw line that was scarred by radiation. Every now and again, I'll feel it stiffening, and it has a harder texture than the rest of the unaffected tissue. It feels like old stiff leather for a moment or two. No specific light headedness connected, but it's worth noting that I get that feeling often when exercising (cross trainer & weight machines).
Head and neck cancer,
Squamous cell carcinoma,
HPV p16, Stage 3N (6/14) Occult origin;
58 year old male 35 rads & 2.5 doses Cisplatin chemo 7/10/14> 8/25/14
1.5 years clear of cancer, at this point.
