Question? We were originally told that we were going to start radiation 6-weeks after surgery so Dan would be healed. The original surgery was 2/5. Then we had to go in for a second surgery on 2/15 because of a hematoma. Then oral surgery on 2/28. All three of these are right in the radiation path. (there was a 4th surgery, but on the eye - not in the path) So - did any of you have surgery that close to treatment and if so did you have healing issues? And the oral surgeon and ENT mentioned to us that he is now at high-risk for osteonecrosis of the jaw because the tooth that was removed on 2/28 was infected all the way to the bone and since there was not alot of healing time allowed... Our RO said (and MO concurred) that since Dan's particular cancer showed very aggressive, etc. on pathology that they couldn't wait.
Just curious to what you guys thought. Thanks for your feedback.
