Joined: Mar 2012 Posts: 58 | Hi all.  So - I still have no feeling on the left side of my tongue where the cancer was removed but I have always had feeling on the tip of my tongue. Over the last couple weeks a razor blade feeling, like that of during radiation, has started only on the tip. No matter how or where I move it, whatever I eat or drink I can feel it. I don't know if it's nerves or what? But it's starting to become frustrating. Has anyone else experienced this around this timeframe post radiation?
