back of head still hurts after 7 years ??
« on: March 12, 2014, 12:11:04 pm »
I had radiation (fsr) about 7 years ago, and to this day I still get a burning sensation in the back of my head on that side, is this common?  I have a mri every year and its not growing at all, so why would i still get a sharp burning pain?  does anyone else experience this? 

thanks

Have you had this all along, or did it just come on recently? What type of radiation did you have? Have you been working with any Doctors about it?
I'm new to this...but concerned...radiation is always a journey into the unknown...but there must be someone out there with some answers??
