Hi I had this radical surgery after recurrence from previous RT treatment, six weeks ago tomorrow.

i am still very swollen lower face and neck with almost solid Edema in those areas. My mouth is equally swollen and swallowing   even saliva is damn nigh impossible 

drs say it's a time thing but just wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar?

regards

martyn
