My question is...Did anyone ever have problems with sores, I finished tx on 11-4-08 and I'm on my 3rd or 4th sore...They come and go but make me nervous. One sore had gotten fairly large and lasted for about 3 weeks maybe a little longer. The last one lasted about a week but now I have a new one in the same spot. The left side of my face hurts...I really can't tell if it's my jaw or not. I was basically pain free for about 3 or 4 weeks.
I assume this is all part of the healing process...
