Hello everyone
Nearly 5 weeks post radiotherapy a chemo and for past 3 days i have sinus type headache across my cheek bones nose behind eyes temple region is this is this nirmal and if so how to treat
Thanks
Hi.....I can't help with your exact problem as my cancer was elsewhere but my advice is to run this past your oncologist. I suspect it's simply a case of tweaking your pain relief or looking at a congestion problem? In any case I would contact your CNS. I doubt it's anything serious, just a hangover from the treatment. You're early days into your recovery.
Best wishes
