New here, and just taking in the info. I start radiation in a couple of weeks, I am trying to be prepared. The tumor is in the base of my tongue and eating and swallowing is already painful ... which was a blessing, as the discomfort is what sent me to the ENT in the first place ... thus the stage 1.

Hello Kenz,you came to right place if you read my and gmcraft answer to Ali question you will have some idea we covered some issues you might face during radiation, Goodluck
