I was wondering if anyone has notice that the skin around the neck and under the chin is loose and not as firm after having rad. Also has anyone developed having sleep apntea after rad. Marvin seems to have alot of loose skin and now seems to stop breathing for short times while sleeping then takes in big gulps of air when he start again. Several people have asked if he has gained weight, but I think it is because of the thickness around his neck. The surgeon saw him yesterday to check on some of the lymph nodes that were still hanging around from the end of rad but said they have not changed and thought they were nothing to worry about but he didnt say anything about the neck expect that people being treated sometime have a thickness. So that got me to wondering about all of this if it is something to worry about.
