Redser, We are on the same time frame, apparently, I am facing my recurrence from my first tongue surgery a year ago. So I am only a year out, as you are. My neck is slowly beginning to regain feeling, but is still numb in spots, and is "tingly" up under the ear and along the jawline on the surgical side. I understand that it continues to improve as the years go by and the nerve endings re-knit, but as to whether it is ever back to where it was before surgery?
Don't know that one!
