My husband has just completed a 6 week course of Chemoradiotherapy for Stage 4 Head & Neck Cancer.
We knew the first weeks after would be hard, but he had had Stage 3 Mucositis since 24 Oct (7 weeks so far) and has had to have everything via a stomach Peg since then, including water & meds. Last weekend the mucus began to reduce slightly and he was delighted as it's so painful, but it's now been replaced by a number of very painful ulcers along his inside jawline.
And in the last 3 days he's also been getting a very, very painful feeling across his inner cheeks and lower jaw as if something is pulling at them.
Is this normal please as we're so worried.
