Hi, Lolita I am 6 months out from chemo and rad for tonsil cancer, I have been having earaches for a couple months. I am assuming it is from scar tissue. My acupuncturist told me that the radiated tissues will try to shrink up a bit.(So maybe it would make one side of your neck look smaller?) Hang in there 'til Jan.13, I'm sure all will be fine. Easier said than done, though. Teresa
