the neuropathy pain is on the tip of my tongue and right side of my jaw (on outside starting by by ear to my chin). I only had the right side of my primary salivary glands damaged (they were able to save the left). The cancer was on the right side of my tongue. yes i have been taking vitamins regularly.

No I never had a peg. I was adamant about not getting one. But I will say when I was towards the end of my radiation, I thought I was going to have to cave. I was utterly misearable and couldn't eat or talk. But I managed to drink ensure when it counted. I did 6 weeks of radiation.
