I have temple pain and pain behind my left eye, but I haven't had radiation. Sometimes it is debilitating.  I think it's part of the neuroma thing.  I'm not sure.  A very good question.  Lots of knowledgeable people on this forum should be able to figure this one out for us.

I am going to speculate that the temple pain is from the facial nerve pressure.  I had very bad temple, ear shell, and ear lobe pain about 5 days post op.  Pain can be occuring on one side of the body and get referred to another side.  The nerve that is projecting pain sends a message to the brain.  The message can be felt in a number or places...just my two cents.  I'd sure ask the doctor for a medical answer.
