I thought I was only going to have the base of my tongue reconstructed and found out my whole tongue is going to have be reconstructed. Has anyone had this done, what is it like afterwords as far as eating. Do you loose your taste and feeling or what? Help

    Hi Deb

    I am sorry to hear this I can’t help because I am NPC but there are a lot of others here who could answer your question better than I can.

    I hope and wish you the best of care
