    Pin pointing where the pain

    Pin pointing where the pain is originating from will be a big help tou you ENT.  You might also want to check in with your dentist as it may have more to do with your jaw and teeth.

    Good luck with everything

    Dentist

    I suggest that you find a dentist who has treated people with head/neck radiation and cancer.  My dentist has this type of experience and has been a big help.  A lot of dentists have never worked on these types of cases.  Just an idea any way, hope the best for you.

    Hey Sara,

    I'm sorry that you have concerns that have brought you the board again, but welcome back.  Seeing your doctor a second time is a good idea, your doc may see something that he didn't notice on the first look.  I trust that your doc is amply experienced in diagnosing and treating head & neck cancers, if not, I strongly suggest that you seek a second opinion from one who is.  You know, come to think of it, even if your doctor has the desired experience in diagnosis and treatment, it would still be a good idea to get a second opinion, it wouldn't hurt, and you never know.  A second opinion saved my life.  I wish you the best, and hope that the problem is not beast related.

    PATRICK
