Hi again..just a question to those who might have experienced the same thing...Since my biopsy I have felt worse than I did before. New lumps have come up in my neck and the base of my skull that dont particularly hurt, but if I touch them they hurt...I know the answer to that one - dont touch them right?
I have a constant ache in my tongue, ear and swollen glands, etc and I can put up with that, but sometimes I get sudden sharp pains, similar pattern to contractions and then they go away after a while.
My tongue looks way better than what it did before the biopsy but hurts a lot more. I took a long course of antibiotics after the biopsy as well.
I have quite a high pain tolerence. My doc has said to take pain med anytime I need it, but I have this feeling that I should be gearing up for pain med after surgery, rad etc. Should I worry about becoming, whats the word, immune to pain killers?
I have an appointment next Friday with specialist so I will be asking all these questions, but would be interested in some 'horses mouth' advice.
Thanks all...
