base of tongue /lymph node cancer, side effects

Less than one minute read time.

Not sure if any one has same problem ,i had cancer treatment a couple years ago ,and i am still having problems.. The tendon in my neck keeps going very tight and i have had blood vessels bleed ,looks like a love bite on my neck just above my collar bone ,i am finding if i over do it (ie try to cut a small hedge ),i am getting very bad headaches ,still have to carry a drink with me when ever i go out  due to the lack of saliva.  Have tried to contact my dr but can't talk to him for 10 days .Thought i would ask on here to see if anyone has had the same problems and might be able to help.?
