Hello all, Eric here... I haven't posted in awhile, and actually I've been doing pretty well of late... My doctor doesn't like that my weight dropped again, but other than that he believes I'm healing up well...

That being said, I've had some interesting pain on the right side of my tongue/mouth the past few days. It reminds me of the pain I felt on the left side of my tongue before my cancer diagnosis. It kind of shoots down into my neck and up into my ear... I looked into my mouth tonight and I noticed a think white line on my tongue -- toward the very back (the opposite side of my tongue where my original tumor was).

It could just be iritation from food (I'm trying lots of "normal" food again, even Chinese food) or from my teeth rubbing, but of course everything out of the ordinary freaks me out... Anyone else have something like this as you healed up? It's been about 8 weeks post-radiation for me... This is the most acute pain I've felt in weeks...

Any thoughts? Am I over-reacting? I hope so, but I don't want to take any chances...
