11 years ago my husband had radiotherapy on cancerous nodes in his oesophagus. The treatment was succesful thank goodness, but since that time he has suffered from periods of vomiting and nausea that occur every three or four weeks. We have seen various Doctors and he has had every test in the book all negative. I know that the fact that he has a completely dead area from below his chin to his collar bone is probably caused by his treatment, but I am wondering if this has created this problem. Any info would be much appreciated.
