@logi My partial glossectomy with reconstruction with a free flap was Feb. 12th. I still have a lot of swelling in my tongue after almost 8 weeks which is quite uncomfortable. I had a trach and feeding tube for a month. Spent 3 weeks in a rehab facility after a week in the hospital. I am now eating most foods except for some meats and crunchy things like salad and other raw vegetables. The wound at my freeflap donor site is still pretty ugly and I prefer to keep it covered when out in public wearing short sleeves. That will be harder with summer coming. My thigh where they took the skin graft to repair my forearm is pretty unsightly too. All of the healing is taking longer than I expected. I too had great pathology report with no further treatment needed. I had tongue cancer before in 2014 that required chemo and radiation so was thrilled to avoid that again because radiation especially was horrific. Best of luck to you - I know how hard it is to be patient through all of this.
