I finished radio in February and thought all was well ,I was eating as normal until a month ago,then ulcers have developed and now I'm back to using just my rig because of the pain
I'm waiting on another biopsy because the petscan showed some sinister light and now mentally challenged as to the the results of forthcoming biopsy
Drinking is becoming.an issue because of the difficulty swallowing and my weight dropped off again, loss of appetite,ànd the mucas from my throat and nose is becoming unbearable
I am also suffering from trismus which isn't helping one bit t
Is there anyone going or gone through this
My head is everywhere
Hi Pb1974
I wish I could help with the anxiety but all I can say is good luck and I hope nothing comes of it apart from maybe thrush which is dead common in the months after RT.
