Hello,
I've just joined and this seemed like the most relevant discussion - please correct me if wrong.
My dad had surgery 18 months ago (melanoma removal and lymph nodes removed - left side of his face - cut from ear to mid neck)). 18 months on he's still suffering from severe pain in the side of his face where they operated - pain so bad he has to stay in bed and barely eats and often vomits. This comes and goes but seems to be coming more and more often. He's been recently for MRI / PET scans and saw the specialist after this to confirm the cancer hasn't returned. It hasn't.
Is this common after this type of surgery? Does anybody else have a similar experience?
Thanks very much.
Phillip
