Hello family, 6 years post chemo / rads I am running into some more problems. This week I started accidentally biting my tongue . OUTCH !!!. Then the other day I was having really bad neck spasms in my neck and started to notice that I was slurring my speech a bit. Now my tongue feels like it's a bit paralyzed on one side. It's crooked and I'm unable to gather any saliva from that side. I've read a bit about this and I'm wondering what OCF members have experienced this and if there is anything they they have found helpful.
Much thanks.
Will
